It's not a regression, it's a documented, deliberate decision to change the behaviour of the program.

    The sudo-rs 'sudoers' manual page suggests that this is a deliberate decision, which makes the Rust version of sudo very definitely not a compatible implementation. The manual page has a nice full section and description of 'Wildcards', and then at the end casually says:
    
    > Wildcards in command line arguments are not supported—using these in original versions of sudo was usually a sign of mis-configuration and consequently sudo-rs simply forbids using them. The only supported use is ‘*’ as the final argument to indicate “zero or more subsequent arguments as noted above.

The manual should probably drop the wildcards section it's not implementing anyway, though.
