Right. A simplistic solution would be:
if (xp->xp_context == EXPAND_FILETYPE)
# ifndef UNIX
/* don't assume glob() works, syntax should have nearly all filetypes */
return ExpandRTDir(pat, num_file, file, "syntax");
# else
return ExpandRTDir(pat, num_file, file, "{syntax,indent,ftplugin}");
# endif
Can you think of something better?
