Follow-up Comment #1:

Actually, this is just reflective of my lack of understanding how -X works.
-X is used to match against full paths (or, according to bug 20518
<https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?20518>, prefixes); not suffixes. And
* in fnmatch() (just as in shells) does not match '/'. We need a "**".
Changing the bug description accordingly.
