More than likely, it never actually indexed those files*, or it tried
to but never managed to parse any text in them.  There are a bazillion
reasons why htdig might fail in either of those two areas, and the only
way to get to the bottom of it is to carefully wade through verbose
output from htdig to find out why.

* It may seem odd that htpurge would delete records for files that were
never actually fetched and indexed, but these records are created when
htdig first sees an HTML link to one of these files.  It creates the
record then to store the link description text for the HTML link(s)
that points to the document.
