        Ran across this one today and tried it again.  I don't
know why, but when it first came out, I gave it a try to accomplish
similar, but had no luck.  Now it's working as I _think_ it's
supposed to be (?).

FIGNORE=".dll;.DLL"
(assuming default value of 'shopt force_fignore' is enabled).

It seems to eliminate a large amount of chaff on Windows.

Am I correct in my interpretation that this is by design?

(ob.sillyness) Of course to get the accurate behavior, one could try
to add every combination of 1, 2 and 3 letters to FIGNORE...*cough*...
(presuming it wouldn't overflow the environment tables).
