[Umlaut-general] Strange Search Result Using SFX4

Weird. Umlaut's actually directly connecting to SFX MySQL db, using the 
tables that SFX builds for A-Z searching, and executing SQL directly 
against them, in order to do this kind of search. Apparently it's got a 
bug in it, or is otherwise not doing this the same way SFX itself is. 
Not sure if I'll have time to debug anytime soon, neck deep in trying to 
create Umlaut 3.0 at present.
