I seem to have found a file name globbing bug, whenever the string to
be expanded starts with a / the / seems to be dissappearing in the
attempted expansion.  For example, if I am in directory /bin and do

ls /t*

I get
   tar tee test time tp true (in the current dir)

instead of
   tmp tp	(in /)

[bash 1.04 on MicroVAX II running Ultrix 2.2]
