Hmm.  B-M-H has worst case search speed O(M*N) (where M = length of

should build the second table when M is large?

I'll look into this. If it pays off for longer searches I'll submit a patch.
I won't have the time until after the 15th, so perhaps that's in November's
commit fest?

Yes.  Let's get B-M-H in during this fest and then you can look into
whether a follow-on patch is worthwhile.

Agreed.

Also, it would be nice to use B-M(-H) for LIKE as well. That's a different codepath, but probably more widely used than textpos and frients. I haven't looked how feasible it would be to do, though.
