'level' should be ptrdiff_t not ssize_t, for portability to 
(now-ancient, but still allowed by POSIX) hosts where ssize_t is 32 bits 
and size_t is 64 bits.

This assumes C99 flex array members which is fine for glibc but dubious 
for Gnulib; it should be safer to use __flexarr.

Thanks for spotting that. I installed the attached patch into Gnulib, 
which should fix the glibc regressions and the other abovementioned 
glitches, so that you should now be able to sync fnmatch from Gnulib 
unchanged.
