FileNameFilters are broken.  See the description of the
Java bug on their web page at

http://developer.javasoft.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4031440.html

The bug has a lengthy description of why it's broken by Tom
Ball of JavaSoft.  Down at the bottom, there are numerous
customer workarounds and simulations.

Hope that helps.
