Ah, well, I was, but I don't seem to be able to repeat it in isolation.
Maybe I fooled myself into misreading the -vvv output I generated while
hunting the missing .xml files, I guess it just fitted too neatly in with
index.html.ID=... being stripped out!

It looks like CompareWord() can breathe a sigh of relief 8-)

It was me who persuaded our AxKit man not to use '?' because I have a
blanket exclusion on indexing '?' URLs , oh well 8-)

Please take the .htm/.html part as a red herring unless I stumble upon
some reproducible evidence to the contrary!

I don't have a test setup currently but maybe I'll ask our sysadmin to
apply the patch after next Monday night's database update, then I have the
rest of the week to play and ask for the old version to be reinstated!
Thanks,
Malcolm.
