What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go version devel +4a28707d55 Wed Jan 10 16:13:38 2018 +0000 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes.

What did you do?

https://play.golang.org/p/szEMiava76J

What did you expect to see?

Given that this is Linux:

[a] <nil>
[a] <nil>
true <nil>

What did you see instead?

[a] <nil>
[] <nil>
true <nil>

I think this is broken, because the Match docs say:

On Windows, escaping is disabled. Instead, '\' is treated as path separator.

And, as you can see, Match works while Glob doesn't. CL incoming.
