Anyway, thank you very much for your helpful input.

AFAIU (see the very last lines of `dired-readin-insert'), in the cons
case (i.e. when a file list is specified) dired always treats the car as
a literal (directory) name and not as a potential wildcard pattern.

So from what I understand with regard to that aspect the suggested patch
should be save.


Thanks,

Michael.
