Subject: Re: fnmatch.h bug?

I have do another experiment.

musl-libc:
     i = fnmatch("\\","\\",0);  // it returns 0 -> i=0
     i = fnmatch("\\","\\",FNM_NOESCAPE);  // it also returns 0 -> i=0

But I think this two lines of code should return different value because I
set the FNM_NOESCAPE flag.

I also do same experiment in glibc:
glibc:
     i = fnmatch("\\","\\",0);  // it returns 1 -> i=1
     i = fnmatch("\\","\\",FNM_NOESCAPE);  // it  returns 0 -> i=0


In another case:
musl-libc:
     i = fnmatch("[1\\]","[1]",0);  // it returns 1 -> i=1
glibc:
     i = fnmatch("[1\\]","[1]",0);  //it returns 0 -> i=0

Because I DON'T set FNM_NOESCAPE flag, so glibc will escape ']' with two '\'
And the return value should be 0 (match '[1]')
Is it right ?

It would be very helpful if you email me back and tell me what's the problem
Sorry ,my english is so poor.
