When using FileList#exclude with a globbing pattern, it uses Dir[pat]

This process is very slow. Why not use File.fnmatch?
Good question. The biggest reason is probably that I'm not familiar
with fnmatch.
Want to supply a patch?
sure. i get an error page trying to access
http://github.com/jimweirich/rake/tree/master, do you know why?
do you object to removing the use of exclude_re and matching regular
expressions one by one? it will simplify the code and i don't think
performance is crucial for FileList#excluded?
