[PATCH] expand: Make glob(3) interruptible by SIGINT

[PATCH] expand: Make glob(3) interruptible by SIGINT

[Herbert Xu]

If glob(3) is used then it can't be interrupted by SIGINT.  This
is bad when an expansion causes a large number of entries to be
generated.  This patch improves things by adding an int_pending
check to gl_opendir call.  Note that this is still not perfect,
e.g., the sort would still be uninterruptible.
