When -C was introduced in r114137 the plan was to have -C and -c being used for
"create" due to a typo in FreeBSD <= 4.8 a temporary compatibility hack has been
added to make -c being like -G aka GLOB and a warning was issued for the user to
be aware of the futur change for -c.
12 years later it is more than time to remove that hack and finish the what was
intent in r114137
