Oh, or Martin's reply. I guess I'm getting really old since this rang
zero bells for me and it was barely 5 months ago... sigh.
Hrmmm .. well thank you both for the reply but I am left wondering what
actions to take here, if any. I have very up to date glibc now :
phobos$ ldd --version
ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.27-2) 2.27

Also I went and fetched the sources and am curious where this "glob" is
to be found :
phobos$ pwd
/usr/local/build/glibc-2.27
Wherein I see :
./posix/glob.c
Lovely name glob .. but regardless the diff between this and the glob.c
inside the make sources isn't trivial :
phobos$ diff ../make-4.2.1_linux_4.13.0-1-686_i686.001/glob/glob.c
./posix/glob.c | wc -l
2310
So I could just lift that out of glibc 2.27 and drop it into the make
source tree and have a go at it. Is that the idea here ?
