Indeed, the only way this can happen as far as I know Lucene is by using a stemmer during indexing, the standard analyzer won't result in such behaviour.

That's not the default behavior, so I'm perplexed. Normally, you have to go to considerable effort to get partial matches.... What analyzers are you using at both index and query time? Perhaps as short a code snippet as you could make showing this behavior would be a good thing to post. I flat guarantee folks will look at it. But please make it short <G>.
