If not, I think I probably need to take a look at this, reproducing and
possibly fixing, before applying non-fix patches.

I have been meaning to look at it for days, so I finally took a peek.  I
was able to reproduce the problem easily. I think it is (almost) as
simple as the patch below. In the refspec parsing, we already require
globs to come after '/', so this is the analagous check during match.

Unfortunately, this breaks t1020 (something about failing to clone HEAD
it looks like, so probably it is some boundary case for matching just
"*"). I don't have time to look further, and I will be out of touch
until probably Sunday evening, so hopefully somebody else can run with
it.
