[issue8402] glob returns empty list with "[" character in the folder name

I don't think so. That quote came from the docstring for fnmatch.translate.

>>> help(fnmatch.translate)
Help on function translate in module fnmatch:

translate(pat)
    Translate a shell PATTERN to a regular expression.
    
    There is no way to quote meta-characters.
