> {{org.apache.hadoop.fs.Globber.glob()}} breaks when a searched directory 
> contains a file whose simple name contains a colon.
> The problem seem to be in the code currently at lines 258 and 257 
> [https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/fs/Globber.java#L257]:
> {noformat}
> 256:              // Set the child path based on the parent path.
> 257:              child.setPath(new Path(candidate.getPath(),
> 258:                      child.getPath().getName()));
> {noformat}
> That last line should probably be:
> {noformat}
>                       new Path(null, null, child.getPath().getName())));
> {noformat}
>  
> The bug in the current code is that:
> 1) {{child.getPath().getName()}} gets the simple name (last segment) of the child {{Path}} as a _raw_ string (not necessarily the corresponding relative _{{Path}}_ string), and
> 2) that raw string is passed as {{Path(Path, String)}}'s second argument, which takes a _{{Path}}_ string.
> When that raw string contains a colon (e.g., {{xxx:yyy}}), it looks like a {{Path}} string that specifies a scheme ("{{xxx}}") and has a relative path "{{yyy}}}"--but that combination isn't allowed, so trying to constructing a {{Path}} with it (as {{Path(Path, String)}} does inside) throws an exception, aborting the entire {{glob()}} call.
>  
> Adding the call to {{Path(String, String, String)}} does the equivalent of converting the raw string "{{xxx:yyy}}" to the {{Path}} string "{{./xxx:yyy}}", so the part before the colon is not taken as a scheme.
