i added the mailing list back to CC in case others have fnmatch
issues as well

fnmatch behaviour is unclear when the pattern ends in \
this is a bug in posix 2008 we reported earlier:
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=806
in the next revision of posix the current behaviour will
be non-conforming (there is a test for this in libc-test)
with FNM_NOESCAPE \ is not special so '\\' matches '\\'

> i = fnmatch("\\","\\",FNM_NOESCAPE); // it returns 0 -> i=0
yes this is allowed

glibc is wrong here, in a bracket expression \ is not special
in any way, "[1\\]" only matches a single '1' or '\\' character
