Seems to work fine over here.

And the manual says:

   <pathspec>...
       This option is only valid for push command.

       The new stash entry records the modified states only for the 
files that match the pathspec. The index entries and working tree files 
are then rolled back to the state in HEAD only for
       these files, too, leaving files that do not match the pathspec 
intact.

       For more details, see the pathspec entry in gitglossary(7).

Check out 'man git stash', perhaps your version of Git just doesn't have 
that feature yet. Though I thought it came with the introduction of 'git 
stash push', as opposed to 'git stash save'.
