To the best of my knowledge the following are not wildcard matches. If they
are can you point me to the definition of [:alpha:]?

I think they have a broken test set -- someone confused wildcards and regular
expressions, or defined the test results backwards.

?
[set]
[!set]
anything else is an extension that is not in basic shell wildcards or
something from regular expressions. You need to be careful because a lot of
documents refer to regular expressions as wildcards, but as you know, they
are not at all the same thing.
I have seen some documents that claim that {stringa,stringb} matches stringa
or stringb, but that seems to be rare, and in any case, it is not implemented
in the basic BSD fnmatch.
