In GNU Emacs 19.26.1 (mips-sgi-irix4.0.5H, X toolkit) of Tue Sep 13 1994 on flamingo.eecs.umich.edu

If I do find-file on any directory multiple times, I get a new dired buffer
every time.  In past versions of Emacs I don't believe it created a new
buffer if a directory was already being edited in an existing buffer.

This is with `find-file-run-dired' set to t, `find-file-existing-other-name'
set to t, `find-file-visit-truename' set to nil.
