I am sorry, this doesn't help me with GNU find under a GNU/linux
system. The way I understand it the problem is that the sort order
of the output of find reflects the order of the files "on disk".
Then find-dired takes this output without sorting and the cdr of
find-ls-option is not really relevant for this. (So I believe the
same problem exists if one wanted to have any other well-defined
sort order in the dired buffer generated by find-dired.)
A custom hook in find-dired might help.
