1.5.18: tclsh's glob and relative paths containing ".."

Hi,

I'm running the following simple script under tclsh 8.4:

puts stdout [glob ../common/*.cpp]

For some reason this returns *absolute* paths to the matching files, e.g.

d:/Development/common/test.cpp

instead of the expected

../common/test.cpp

Using ActiveTcl and under Linux the script works as expected. Relative 
paths that do not contain ".." also work fine under all platforms, incl. 
Cygwin. Any insights?
