LC_COLLATE not used for filename expansion

With LC_COLLATE set to a locale with case-insensitive collation,
filename expansion does not use the locale. It does with LC_ALL.

In an empty directory:

$ touch a B c D e F
$ echo *
B D F a c e
$ LC_COLLATE=en_us
$ echo *
B D F a c e
$ LC_ALL=en_us
$ echo *
a B c D e F
