It is a change in the default sort order.

[root@xxxxxx /]# echo [A-B]*
bin boot
[root@xxxxxx /]# export LC_COLLATE="C"
[root@xxxxxx /]# echo [A-B]*
[A-B]*
[root@xxxxxx /]# unset LC_COLLATE
[root@xxxxxx /]# echo [A-B]*
bin boot

I prefer the old sorting, so I added a line to /etc/sysconfig/i18n:
echo 'LC_COLLATE="C"' >> /etc/sysconfig/i18n
