Do you experience it when you start vim with "-u NONE"?

I just tried your example and it worked fine (the stock 7.4.1-488,576
on Debian Linux), putting those two file-names in my argument list, as
reported back with ":args".

I don't know if it's an OS-specific globbing, so if you're running it
on Windows, you might see a different behavior (I just tested it on
an XP VM that I have at hand where I do see the behavior you
describe).
