Thanks.  I think I have no objection to this patch...  The code is fine, 
I am just unsure about the use cases.  Mind you, with pacman hooks in 
the future, we might want to have "Include /etc/pacman/hooks/*".

One query, does this handle the case where there is nothing in the 
globbed folder?  Is that the GLOB_ABORTED case?
