Not in the "commands issued by lgrep", but in the glob pattern passed to lgrep.
One wants to use the same shell as one is used to using interactively,
so that one can use that shell's glob patterns, if it has specific ones,
as zsh does. (I'm not a zsh user.)

I don't think forcing it to use bash is the right solution.
