I can't reproduce your problem with develop
(b1193100b09148a4276cbd5455b451e1bb5d5fec) or master
(f6ab5fc0fd3d9c3dbd9e3f57595b14d8ae1539fb).

Boost.Build: develop 79dd4a729273dcb22a2f1a2340c176863925699b

I guess you can try stepping though glob in the debugger.
Here's what I see:
$ cd libs/date_time/doc
$ b2 -dconsole
(b2db) break ../xmldoc/Jamfile.v2:26
Breakpoint 1 set at ../xmldoc/Jamfile.v2:26
(b2db) run -n -d1 boostdoc
Starting program: /home/swatanabe/bin/b2 -n -d1 boostdoc
Performing configuration checks

    - default address-model    : 64-bit (cached)
    - default architecture     : x86 (cached)
Breakpoint 1, modules.load ( Jamfile</.../libs/date_time/xmldoc> :
../xmldoc/Jamfile.v2 : . ) at ../xmldoc/Jamfile.v2:26
26	local date_time_files = [ glob ../../../boost/date_time/*.hpp ] ;
(b2db) break path.glob
Breakpoint 2 set at path.glob
(b2db) continue
Breakpoint 2, path.glob ( ../xmldoc : ../../../boost/date_time/*.hpp :
) at /mnt/hgfs/boost/boost-git/tools/build/src/util/path.jam:219
219	    local result ;
(b2db)

which should give the right results unless something is very wrong.
