On Windows, trailing dots are ignored: if you create a file named "file." it 
succeeds but the actual file name is "file" (tested on both Windows 98/FAT32 
and Windows XP/NTFS). Wine's NTDLL goes to great lengths to do the same thing. 
Even the Linux kernel FAT32 driver does the same thing, and I suspect so does 
the NTFS driver.

Please explain what you are really trying to do: a "*." mask seems pointless 
since it looks for files that can't exist.
