From 88220adb72c5cb00e3c8d0886ebe687edf842cd8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcel Raad Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2017 21:35:46 +0200 Subject: tool_main: turn off MinGW CRT's globbing By default, the MinGW CRT globs command-line arguments. This prevents getting a single asterisk into an argument as test 1299 does. Turn off globbing by setting the global variable _CRT_glob to 0 for MinGW.
