In ignore.c, line 118 and following, you see a piece of code where the "shell"
patterns are compiled into pcre patterns.
It does convert "*", "**" and "?" into special values; all other are passed
as-is (or, in the case of "{", "[", etc., escaped).
So yes, only the beforementioned "patterns" are possible in shell-like syntax;
for everything else you need PCRE.
That's a bit incompatible with the rsync-syntax, which I wanted to duplicate.
But PCRE are much more powerfull.
