Subject: [PATCH] Fixed parsing of "+N" parameter.

The pattern "+[0-9][0-9]*" does not match a '+' character followed by a
number. Instead it matches a '+' character followed by 2 digits and any
number of any character.
The correct pattern needs the shell option extglob to be activates and
is "\++([0-9])".
