I'm going to hazard a guess that you are on windows? I speculate that one
of the shells listed here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_alternative_shells_for_Windows might
expand the wildcard before handing the list to fossil.

Windows cmd.exe leaves wildcard expansion to the application, a choice that
seems really moronic to me but perhaps there was a good reason for it. My
preferred solution (other than avoiding windows in general) is to install
Mingw (http://www.mingw.org/) and use bash.

Also, and this may or may not apply to you, but in many cases when I've
observed people needing to constantly commit subsets of files it came down
to not using branches to separate threads of development.
