I have to clarify this. The new features of fnmatch and glob will only be available starting with Cygwin 3.5.0, slated for end of 2023. Any further 3.4.x versions will only contain bugfixes, not functional enhancements. So please don't expect this to work in 3.4.7. So this dash version only makes sense if you install Cygwin-3.5.0 test releases on a regular basis.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Test: dash 0.5.12-4 (TEST)
The following test packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution: * dash 0.5.12-4 Add dash-VER-R link as no version info or query is available. This test release has been rebuilt re-enabling libc fnmatch and glob as Cygwin/winsup now supports locale dependent named character and equivalence class patterns like glibc in Cygwin versions > 3.4.6-1. Install this test package only if you are running Cygwin snapshots or test packages newer than 3.4.6-1 as it is an install condition, so *should* not be installable with current stable or older. If no issues are reported the package will be upgraded to current when the Cygwin current stable release is updated to > 3.4.6-1. Thanks to Andrey Repin for testing and bringing this to our attention, Harald van Dijk on the dash list for pointing out the commit responsible, and Corinna Vinschen for adding support for locale dependent named character class, equivalence class, and collating symbol patterns to the Cygwin libc fnmatch and glob functions. Please test this Base category shell as extensively as possible (especially if you are a Cygwin package maintainer) as this package is used in all installations. I have it locally installed as my /bin/sh so it is used by most scripts, cron jobs, and cygport builds, so it has and is getting frequent exercise with no apparent issues so far. DASH is a POSIX-compliant implementation of /bin/sh that aims to be as small as possible. It does this without sacrificing speed where possible. In fact, it is significantly faster than bash (the GNU Bourne-Again SHell) for most tasks.
