Hi,

In message "[ruby-talk:15738] Ruby globbing problem?"

I see a problem from

|irb(main):002:0> Dir.entries("/SRPMS").size
|1117

and

|irb(main):004:0> Dir["/SRPMS/*"]
|[]

It must be a bug.  But I'm not exactly sure how to regenerate the
problem.  Could you tell me the link situation in detail?
