From the curl_fnmatch.c code and unit1307.c tests, I can see that currently,
a negated character set pattern can match the end of string.
Example: "a" is matched by pattern "a[^b]".
It is not what shell globing does: the end of data can only be matched by
the end of the pattern.
Is it intentional or a bug ?
I'd say it is a bug. I fixed a bug in there recently and I couldn't find any
proper docs describing how it is supposed to work and I took an easy route and
made a decision. I suppose it should work like the fnmatch() function -
although I couldn't really find any good docs for that pattern either.
This is a function that seems to be virtually unused...
