Before mediawiki deployment 1.16 for wikimedia wikies, search error was common
because mediawiki ignored the joiner for searching, and consider both
characters (characters with joiner and without joiner) are same. After 1.16
deployment chillu characters in database switched to 5.1 version, so I am not
sure whether it persists in mediawiki now ;-) But I haven't heard anyone fixed
this.

Please see an old screenshot here

all results in the screenshot are wrongly displayed.
