grep bug

If there is no file matching the filename pattern string in the current directory in a recursive grep, it errors...

example:

fgrep -ri "cn: " *.ldif

fgrep: *.ldif No such file or directory


However, if you change *.ldif to *

most of the results returned are in ldif files in subdirectories (at least in the source code I was searching in this case)
