I'm pretty sure we had agreed *not* to change the default behavior of -t.
My patch does that, in the case of no-wildcards -t argument.
However, it can be fixed easily: just drop that strcspn() call, and then default behavior is the same for both wildcard and exact matches, since --strict-include is off by default.
