PS: While we're about it, can we please fix the expansion of « a/*/b/c/d/*

call readdir on dirs matching a/*/, a/*/b/, or a/*/b/c/.
It already does this.
Given
$ find . -print
.
./a
./a/z
./a/z/b
./a/z/b/c
./a/x
./a/x/b
./a/x/b/c

./a/x/b/c/d/5
./a/y

Running `echo a/*/b/c/d/*' calls opendir(2) twice:
$ ./bash ./x1
opendir: a/
opendir: a/x/b/c/d
a/x/b/c/d/1 a/x/b/c/d/2 a/x/b/c/d/3 a/x/b/c/d/4 a/x/b/c/d/5
