We might figured that the problem is not a programming but more likely
connected to customizing of the sphinx.conf. Depending on combination of
settings such as;

* min_word_len       = 5
* min_stemming_len = 5
* min_infix_len    = 1
* enable_star      = 1

Sphinx will only return suggestions when those parameters met. For example
min_word_len is set 5 than only suggestions for terms larger than 5 will be
made.

Besides this, it is still not really clear why for example the suggestions for 

* Render returns 24 results but the suggestions for 
* Ren only return 1

We would expect Ren the be in a larger pool of suggestions than Render.

[Thu Sep 15 20:38:56.313 2011] 0.002 sec [ext2/2/ext 1 (0,10)] [*] @page_title:
^Ren*

For time being we might close this bug, and note that parameters in sphinx.conf
impact the quality of suggested terms according to the parameters set when
$wgEnableSphinxPrefixSearch is true.
