Why do you think this is a "failure"?  There indeed are no files
matching these widlcards in the Emacs's src directory.

I guess you are right. I compared it to rgrep where the result is `Grep:exit [no match]' and the mode line says `Grep finished with no matches found'. Whereas with lgrep you get an `abnormal exit' from grep even if there are matches to some of the wild cards. This example was contrived. I noticed this at work in a tree where there were .CC and .cpp files present, but grep still exited abnormally.

There is no failure in Emacs. I'm closing this. Thanks.
