Nope.  As long as you include an unquoted * on the command line, it
should fail.  Not verified, but since every other bash command that
expands the * fails, I would expect this to fail too.

This might work:

find . -name '*' -exec rm {} \;

Again, not tested, but the other solutions are cleaner anyway.
