My solution was to set the locale, but apparently that didn't do the
trick on your system. I'm really not sure why. Geoff's solution
was to patch the source. It's a trivial fix: just change the 160 on
htdig/SGMLEntities.cc line 34 to a 32 (20 is the hexadecimal value of
a space, not decimal), and recompile, reinstall htdig, and reindex.
The change is a bit different in version 3.2, as the SGML decoding has
changed, but it should be simple there too. I don't think we want to
make this a permanent change in the distributed source, though, because
it may have some undesirable consequences for some users. Of course,
it's open for discussion.
