Well, if you had System V, release 3, you could use the -mount option to
stop find from crossing file-system mount points in its search.  But -mount
isn't even in the SVID.  Maybe Sun'll implement it in System V release 4...
It's certainly not recognised by the Sun 3 we have here.

Ain't compatibility great?
