updatedb from findutils-4.6.0-2.oc00.pentium4 touches network drives where it should not

Description
The command to update my locate db is similar for each of my local drives:
[c:\]sh j:/usr/bin/updatedb --localpaths=d:/ --prunepaths= --output=j:/var/d-locatedb
Invariably, this causes NetDrive to attempt to access network shares. On the volume being cataloged above, there are no symlinks pointing to these shares, so it's not a matter of following symlinks which should not be followed.
log.ndpsmb snippet is attached showing all NetDrive Samba traffic during the above pass. I do not know whether NetWare mappings are similarly queried, though this is likely.

This is how the script is written. If one steps up and wants to fix it, I will include the patch.
But I have neither the time nor the will to fix this IMHO trivial issue.

seems no more interest or it runs as it should now. So closing it
