hi david,
I installed 0.9.0 to a heavily busy webserver (100k pagevisits/day) and 
its working flawlessly (at least it seems so :) ).. But I have a major 
problem. Now ferret doesnt index nor search unicode turkish characters. 
I was using StandardAnalyzer in 0.3.2 and it was working fine; because 
w+ RegExp statement was somehow working with turkish charset (UTF-8) (in 
normal conditions it shouldnt be; but I am luck I think :) ).

Now is there a way that I can make ferret work with unicode again or 
should I stick to 0.3.2

thanks in advance, thanks for great work.
