Above change only filters out filenames with above few header
extensions.

hbmk2 still accepts input files with no extension, or even with any
custom made extensions (like: .prog). Maybe I'm misunderstanding
something, but can't see the issue, or maybe I've implemented my
idea wrongly.

Although I've found a bug: *.* and * weren't expanded.

Brgds,
