Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing
list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

eshell/time complains about the commandline >>time xx *<< with the
error message >>Invalid function: "vv/"<<; here "vv/" is a file in the
current directory. The commandline >>time xx vv<< leads to the correct
error message >>xx: command not found<<. The same happens with valid
command names instead of "xx".

To reproduce this:
- - start emacs with "runemacs.exe --debug-init -Q"
- - type "M-x eshell"
- - type the commandline as above

I got the same behaviour with "emacs 21.2.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu,
X-toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2002-04-09 on porky.devel.redhat.com"
