In a chain what gets passed is the object that is being processed.
In this case I would say the expression is processed, while the path is
a parameter indicating how to process the expression.

        eval GetPattern()->glob()->ListResults()
        eval GetPattern()->globpath(&rtp)->ListResults()

Did you expect that with -> the base is always passed as the first
argument?  That doesn't work well for some existing functions.
