PATTERN is a regular expression comprising path and file pattern -- e.g. 'PATH/^REGEXP$'. Note the `^' at the beginning of the file name pattern. I think this text reflects an older version of filesets.el, before the change in :pattern format. See doc string of `filesets-update-pre010505' for an explanation of the change in format. IIUC, DIR is a pattern that matches a directory and PATTERN is a pattern that matches files (and subdirs) in that directory. The old format combinded DIR and PATTERN in one regexp, but they are now separated, so the text about PATTERN "comprising path and file pattern -- e.g. 'PATH/^REGEXP$'" is simply wrong. (Besides which, we don't use "path" this way in the Emacs doc - we use "directory" instead.)
