Partly because the GNU glob semantics are more extensive than the POSIX
spec, partly because Mark Baushke reported that even glob functions that
are supposed to meet the POSIX spec often don't, the new glob module
only uses a system glob when it appears to be GNU glob.  I can't tell
for sure without reviewing your configure.log, but the specific reason
configure noticed that your glob.h doesn't work is probably the lack of
a <gnu-versions.h> defining the _GNU_GLOB_INTERFACE_VERSION macro.

Cheers,
