Yes.  It provides data type declarations, function prototypes, and 
inline wrappers to allow user land code to call glob(3) and globfree(3) 
functions, which are (mostly) POSIX compatible; that we then adopt the 
glob(3) function, (in the guise of __mingw_glob()), to implement an 
improved CLI arguments handler, in the start-up code, is incidental.

The copies I have here don't; neither do copies of the two I attached to 
the bug ticket, after I've downloaded them again.

It doesn't.  My working copies are all LF only line endings.

Maybe.  I don't know.  I guess you should filter the patches through 
dos2unix, before (or as) you apply them.
