Guido, the reason iteratools has a separate filter() and filterfalse() tools is 
because of your API guidance to prefer separate functions rather than having 
flags in most cases.

Do you still feel that way and does it apply here?  Personally, I would want to 
have a separate function for fnmatch.filter_false() rather than adding 
complexity to the API for fnmatch.
