Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: In fact glob() is already protected against an endless recursion (in the same way as Bash). The level of recursion is simply limited by the maximum length of the path. So I did not change the implementation, I have just added a test for symlink loop. I also corrected the other new tests so that they should not fail on the platform without symlinks.
