[Bug: 21.4.15] find-file doesn't run dired from a file buffer

Dear Bug Team!

I have the variable find-file-run-dired set to t, but when I try to open dired 
with find-file it does nothing if I'm in a file buffer.  From *scratch*, or some 
other buffer not associated with a file, it does open dired.  Any ideas?
