no difference. :(

the real command (in case it matters) is:
  find $r/$c/$d ! -type d -exec ln -s {} $(basename {}) \;


although you can demonstrate it with this:
  find -exec echo `basename {}` \;

I'm starting to suspect it's an issue with find... perhaps with the
choice of shell it's using for the -exec command, since as you point
out basename is a bash builtin.
