Take the following example, assumed to be run in an empty directory:
$ mkdir a
$ echo **
a
$ echo **/**
a a
$ echo **/**/**
a a a
I would expect the result to be just 'a' in all cases.
You also get back a null filename, as shown by
$ for f in **/**/**; do echo "'$f'"; done
''
'a'
'a'
'a'

I can't reproduce it on my Fedora with bash 4.2.10 nor 4.2.39. Tried
turn on and off extglob shell option.
Can you please resend your report with `bashbug' script? Or at least say
which linux distribution you are using?
