Hmm.  My first guess was that the pt_PT locale isn't working on your system,
but the fact that your query is expanded to '(semin�rio or semin�rios)'
suggests that the endings algorithm is working correctly, and apparently
it's handling accented letters as letters correctly as well.  Does the
word semin�rio appear in your db.wordlist file?
