iam happy with any method but 2 changes where the 1st adds wordexp
support and the 2nd replaces wordexp by glob are a bit ehm messy ...
that should be just one clean change that adds glob support.

and for a single patch simply posting the patch is probably the easiest
way.
If you maintain some code for longer and there are regular changes then
i prefer if i can just pull them in from a git repo instead of having
to apply x patches by hand possibly forgeting one in the process.

But the method of submitting really doesnt matter much, we are flexible
and can take the code by any means if some contributor has a strong
preferance
