Odd. I do. The original problem was on a Redhat machine at work. I don't
trust Redhat (and the mail there is disfunctional) so I sent it from a
FreeBSD box, running bashbug there. Here on a Debian machine:

$ touch ^A^A
$ ls -l ^A?
ls: `?: No such file or directory
$ ls -l ?^A
ls: ?`: No such file or directory
$ ls -l ??

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05a.0(1)-release (arm-unknown-linux-gnu)
Copyright 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
$ ls -l ^A^A
