b19 didn't export glob export either. I never noticed it simply because
my configure scripts substitute my glob if system runtime doesn't provide
it.

I'm not sure I'll call it bug. Unless of course it really did become 
part of POSIX.2 (I haven't checked if .2 has been approved yet). I 
don't have my copy of Susv2 here, but I believe it's required there 
as well.
