compiling with the above gives identical search results (meaning, gives the
same false matches) as before.  Only noticable change is that 'make' gives a
lot more warnings than before (log-make-err has 536 lines, mostly things
like "missing initializer", as opposed to 6 when the same source is compiled
with default options).  So, the optimization isn't it. grr.

If there was a gcc binary lying around somewhere, I might give that a
try...but I'd rather not compile GCC if I can avoid it.

have you verified on either release that a word giving a null list ANDed
with a word giving a populated list returns no matches?  That is, have you
verified that this bug is completely specific to my machine; or, have you
duplicated it on another machine?


Thanks again,
