Summary: Cannot search for C[N+]#[C-]

Initial Comment:
Isocyanides or isonitriles, normally written as C[N+]#[C-] (methylisocyanide) 
or c1ccccc1[N+]#[C-] (phenylisocyanide) cannot be search with standard 
fingerprint-based fastsearch because during index generation the structure is 
changed erroneously to C#[N]C or C#[N]c1ccccc1. This appears to be an error in 
valence assignment. Actually, this is an interesting case where the isonitrile 
C has a valence of 2 not 4.

Similarly, nitro groups of the type c1ccccc1[N+](=O)[O-] are turned into 
O=N(=O)c1ccccc1 during index generation which generates inconsistency between 
original data and data retrieved by using the index. 

obgrep works correctly. babel does not.

Seen in 2.2.0 2.2.3 and yesterday SVN 2.2.99 on OpenSuse 10.3
