Create a regular file called "foo", then call glob(3) with the
pattern "foo\/".  This returns a single match with the string
"foo".  This should return no match.

If you change the pattern to "foo/", then it also matches but
returns with the string "foo/" as expected.

The only flag we pass to glob(3) is GLOB_NOMAGIC.

Cheers,
