> If a glob contains a grouping with a single item that contains a slash, ex. "{a/b}", then globStatus throws {{"Illegal file pattern: Unclosed group near index 2"}} -- regardless of whether the path exists.  However, if the glob set contains more than one item, ex. "{a/b,c}", then it throws a {{NullPointerException}} from {{FileSystem.java:1277}}.
> {code}
> 1276: FileStatus[] files = globStatusInternal(new Path(filePattern), filter);
> 1277: for (FileStatus file : files) {
> 1278:   results.add(file);
> 1279: }
> {code}
> The method {{globStatusInternal}} can return null, so the iterator fails with the NPE.
