So, the problem is mostly with search.c. Basically, we need to
temporarily disable the stemming if there is a wildcard query in the
current word. This could also be affecting my Soundex stuff, since it
works the same.
I'll have a look. My main development machine is crippled for the
moment. But, I have been meaning to install some dev software on my
other machine.
