filelib:wildcard

Hi,

  I'm getting strange results with filelib:wildcard/2
(tested in R11B-1 and
R11B-5):

3> filelib:wildcard("ebin/*.app",
"/home/samuel/local/src/yaws").
[]
4> filelib:wildcard("*/*.app",
"/home/samuel/local/src/yaws").
["ebin/yaws.app"]


  If I move to Cwd it works as I expected (even though it is
a symlink):

8> cd("/home/samuel/local/src/yaws").
/var/local/scratch/samuel/src/yaws-1.58
ok
9> filelib:wildcard("ebin/*.app",
"/home/samuel/local/src/yaws").
["ebin/yaws.app"]

  If this is a bug, a simple workaround is using
filelib:wildcard/1 and
filename:join/2 to build an absolute wildcard.

  Regards

Thanks for the bug report. It indeed seem to be a bug.

I've added it to my to-do and hope to correct it for the
R12B release.
