Image showing correct and incorrect behaviour side-by-side

Problem description: When using the SUMIF function, the function gives a result
of 0 if the cell referenced in the criteria (second argument) contains
brackets.

Steps to reproduce:

Enter the following data in A1:B6;
Primary Teacher            3
Secondary Teacher    7
Teachers (other)    5
Primary Teacher            3
Secondary Teacher    7
Teachers (other)    5

Enter the following in D1:D3;
Primary Teacher
Secondary Teacher
Teachers (other)

Enter the following formula in cell E1 and then copy down to E2 & E3
=SUMIF($A$1:$A$6,D1,$B$1:$B$6)

Note that the result for "Primary Teacher" is correct (ie 6), "Secondary
Teacher" is correct (ie 14), "Teachers (other)" is incorrect (result is 0). 
Now search and replace "Teachers (other)" with "Other Teachers" and note that
the result is correct (ie 10).
