If we add GLOB_NOCHECK as suggested to reduce the difference between using
glob()+execvp() and executing "ls -ld -- *.c" in the shell, then we should
add GLOB_ERR as well.

I don't like the half-way-house error checking that just calls abort().  We
should either not add error checking (do we do it in any other example
application code?) or add "proper" error checking.
