+1, but *only* if it does not lead to us having to write our own
version of glob(). It's not worth that much work, compared to just
allowing a directory name and hard-wiring the "*.conf" rule.
Some poking around suggests that glob(3) is reasonably portable
across Unixen, but is it provided on Windows?
