David Jones added the comment:

The original bug report did not mention ls (note serhiy.storchaka). It is a red 
herring.

I accept that the Python community doesn't care to have glob.glob sorted.
But then I think you should distance yourself from the shell in the 
documentation.

It currently says:
"The glob module finds all the pathnames matching a specified pattern according 
to the rules used by the Unix shell"

You could say something like:
"The glob module finds all the pathnames matching a specified pattern, using a 
syntax inspired by the Unix shell; unlike Unix shell the ordering is not 
guaranteed"
