What I had in mind was the possibility that a different entity was used
in this title than elsewhere in other documents. That doesn't seem to be
the case.

OK, how about creating a different config file that sets start_url to
only the one page that's giving you problems, and perhaps change
database_dir to avoid clobbering your current database, and then running
"htdig -ivvvvc newconfig.conf" to see what htdig is doing when in parses
the title of this page. Take a look at the resulting db.wordlist as well,
to see if "litt�rature" (or some mangled form of it) is getting into the
database.
By the way, when you say the page is entitled 'Litt�rature francophone
virtuelle', do you mean the document's <head> section contains
"<title>Litt�rature francophone virtuelle</title>", or do you mean it's
the main heading (i.e. <h1>) in the document? Are your title_factor
and/or heading_factor_1 non-zero?
