Are you sure about this?
I enabled CONFIG_GLOB_SELFTEST, and globtest succeeded.
It does test glob_match("a", "aa"), which is a similar test.

To be 100% sure, I added:

--- a/lib/globtest.c
+++ b/lib/globtest.c
@@ -59,6 +59,7 @@ static char const glob_tests[] __initconst =
        "1" "a\0" "a\0"
        "0" "a\0" "b\0"
        "0" "a\0" "aa\0"
+       "0" "r8a7796\0" "r8a77961\0"
        "0" "a\0" "\0"
        "1" "\0" "\0"
        "0" "\0" "a\0"

and it still succeeded.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
