How can I use glob to get all .cpp and .hpp files in a directory but
treat file names that contain a dash like follows: if the name is in
the form *-$(platform)* then I want it included in the glob output
just like dash-less file names; all other file names with dashes I
want to be excluded.

For example, if $(platform) expands to "posix", I want files like
foo.cpp and foo-posix.cpp included in the glob output -- but not
foo-windows.cpp.

Thanks,
Emil
