Nope. The directory was not empty, so * should have been expanded by the shell according to the bash "pathname expansion" rules.  I included the SHELLOPTS variable in the first email to show that noglob is not set.

$ mkdir newdir
$ cd newdir
$ touch newfile
$ ls
newfile
$ ls *
ls: *: No such file or directory
$ type ls
ls is hashed (/usr/bin/ls)
