It's a little counter-intuitive that foo/* is not a superset of foo/file.  The
former can't tractably discover d111/file, of course.  As to whether
foo/file fall back to readdir() when the directory is readable but not
executable, I guess this was either discussed in the other thread or is
ETOOMUCHEFFORT, or possibly both — but it's too late right now for me to go
look, sorry.

Thanks for the patch, Bart.

The trailing spaces were eaten by something in the email delivery chain, but
they're definitely unrelated to the test itself:

% print -raC 2 x y | sed 's/$/$/'
x  y  $
%
