I'm running microport System V/386 3.0e (sys V R3.0) and i get an invalid
argument instead:
$ mkdir /tmp/$$; cd /tmp/$$
$ for i in $(iota 1 64); do mkdir $i; done
$ pg *
pg: 1 is a directory
pg: 10 is a directory
etc..
pg: 24 is a directory
pg: 25 is a directory
26: Invalid argument
27: Invalid argument
28: Invalid argument
etc...
