Might as well bring some glibc expert on board for this discussion. (Sorry, I don't have a recommendation who might that be.) They could put the glibc behavior into perspective, and also advise about other implementations of `glob'. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
