Description

I'm having trouble getting the '**' command-line globbing operator for js files to work on Windows in recent releases. It appears to work on Linux just fine.

Windows example:

C:/temp/closure/test/test1.js
C:/temp/closure/test/test2.js

\> java -jar compiler.jar --js='C:/temp/closure/**.js'
The compiler is waiting for input via stdin

Linux example:

/tmp/closure/test/test1.js
/tmp/closure/test/test2.js

\> java -jar compiler.jar --js='/tmp/closure/**.js'
