[Bug libc/1342] New: glob doesn't strip backslashes with GLOB_NOCHECK

["vela at debian dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

If glob is called with GLOB_NOCHECK and a pattern that doesn't contain
metacharacters, it will simply copy the pattern to the result without
removing backslashes.

An example of incorrect behavior:

    ~/cvs/libc$ posix/globtest -c . '\no-metacharacters'
    `\no-metacharacters'

An example of correct behavior, as observed on FreeBSD:

    $ ./globtest -c . '\no-metacharacters'
    `no-metacharacters'
