Try:
alias ls (to see if you're getting invisible flags enabled)
/bin/ls -d /tmp/[A-Z]* (to try the command without such)
I'm getting strange stuff too:
$ /bin/ls -l radiolab101510--Fate-and-Fortune.mp3
-rw-r--r-- 1 zl zl 57144527 Sep 30 16:10
radiolab101510--Fate-and-Fortune.mp3
$ /bin/ls -l *.mp3

Try `/bin/ls --help' for more information.
$ rpm -qf /bin/ls
