find . -name '*' -print
begins its output with ".", followed by "./somename", where "somename" is the first name found in the current directory. According to the documentation, "*" does not match "." at the beginning of the basename; it appears that find is now treating the basename of "." as an empty string, which is a very curious behavior. The expected behavior can be achieved with
find . -name '*' -not -name . -print
