Here is that amgbuity again ;-). It is only required, if the user
wants a special character to match literally. It's perfectly fine to
specify  *.pyc  as a pattern. I have phrased it like that.

I emphasized more, that the basename of the FILE argument (not the
entire FILE) is in fact a CVS ignore pattern.

Right, I just left the  goto-char  in there, because it makes it
obvious what is going on. Switching to the side-effect optimization ...
