  13. I successfully compiled BASH 1.12 under HP-UX 8.00 on an HP9000/345
  14. without incident, but the resulting shell exhibits some strange
  15. behavior when expanding wildcards.  For example:
  16.  
  17. larson% ls
  18. alias-conv.sh*   scripts/         suncmd.termcap
  19. functions/       startup-files/   whatis
  20. larson% echo *
  21. alias-conv.sh
  22. larson% echo s*
  23. scripts
  24.  
  25. As you can see, the wildcard expansion only picks up the first item.
  26.  
  27. Has anyone else compiled BASH under a similar environment?  Is there
  28. something simple that I'm missing?  Any help would be greatly
  29. appreciated -- I'd like to avoid digging around if someone has already
  30. solved this one.
  31.  
  32. Thanks.
