No, actually that's not the case.  

Here is the state after indexing the site while the file containing the keyword 
"dalek" DOES exist:

% ls -l
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users       83968 Nov 25 10:20 db.docdb
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users        6144 Nov 25 10:20 db.docs.index
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users      109895 Nov 25 10:20 db.wordlist
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users      117760 Nov 25 10:20 db.words.db

% grep -l "dalek" *
db.docdb
db.wordlist
db.words.db

Now I remove the file containing the word "dalek" and reindex the site by running 
"rundig".

% ls -l
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users       83968 Nov 25 10:21 db.docdb
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users        6144 Nov 25 10:21 db.docs.index
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users      109740 Nov 25 10:21 db.wordlist
-rw-rw-r--   1 adams    users      117760 Nov 25 10:21 db.words.db

% grep -l "dalek" *
db.words.db

Although it appears (from the timestamps) that each of the four files are being 
regenerated by "rundig", db.words.db still contains the word "dalek", though no other 
file does.  (and read/write permissions shouldn't factor into this - everything is 
owned by me)
