Update of bug #25294 (project findutils):

                  Status:               Need Info => Fixed                  
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed                 
           Fixed Release:                    None => 4.5.4

Follow-up Comment #5:

Both examples now avoid assertion failures on cygwin with stock findutils
4.5.4, so I'm closing the report as fixed:

$ mkdir example
$ ln -s /nowhere example/n
$ find -L example
example
example/n
$ rm example/n
$ ln -s //nowhere example/n
$ find -L example
example
example/n
$ rm example/n
$ ln -s loop example/loop
$ find -L example
example
find: `example/loop': Too many levels of symbolic links
$
