Just a reminder: you aren't the only one :/

Depending on the outcome, you will fall into one of three camps wrt
indexing problems:
1) no problem, no matter what test you run (Bruce and FreeBSD)
2) problems at some level, but needing a slightly more complicated
sequence of commands to get there (Tom, Tatsuo, and Linux, etc.)
3) problems with a very simple sequence of commands (David and AIX)

Assuming that these all stem from a single underlying problem, then it
seems that David's machine would have the fast-track on finding it,
since he can provoke symptoms so easily. Unfortunately, none of those
affected with the problem are familiar with the areas of code which are
problematic.

Does anyone else see the problem at David's level? Does anyone see these
problems on anything other than Linux and Unixware? Does anyone see no
problems on anything other than FreeBSD?

There is another problem in the code wrt views and rules and freeing
memory after a query. I'm starting to look at that one, figuring that it
will be easier to track down and will reduce the number of problems we
are trying to fight at one time.
