where does the "positionIncrementGap" come in? because my naive impression is 
that the end() method is precisely where something like 
posIncAtt.setPositionIncrement(getPositionIncrementaGap()) should be called.
{quote}

PositionIncrementGap is not related to this bug, because its something done 
separately by indexwriter. Its always factored in correctly, its not buggy.

The "bug" is if a field instance ends with a stopword, that accumulated 'hole' 
is lost.
{noformat}
doc.add(new TextField("body", "just a", Field.Store.NO));
doc.add(new TextField("body", "test of gaps", Field.Store.NO));
iw.addDocument(doc);
...
PhraseQuery pq = new PhraseQuery();
pq.add(new Term("body", "just"), 0);
pq.add(new Term("body", "test"), 2);
// body:"just ? test"
assertEquals(1, is.search(pq, 5).totalHits); // FAIL!
{noformat}

So the problem is the first instance of the field loses its hole for "a" (a 
stopword that was removed),
only because it ended on a stopword, so incrementToken() returned false and 
there was no subsequent token
to apply the 'hole' to.

This is the same problem as an instance of a field ending with say a space 
character and all the offsets being wrong,
this was why end() was added, so the indexer can pull 'end of stream state'.

> if you have pages of a book as multivalued fields, with the default position 
> increment gap
> of analyzer.java (0), phrase queries won't work across pages if one ends with 
> stopword(s).
> This is because the 'trailing holes' are not taken into account in end(). So 
> I think in
> TokenStream.end(), subclasses of FilteringTokenFilter (e.g. stopfilter) 
> should do:
> {code}
> super.end();
> posIncAtt += skippedPositions;
> {code}
> One problem is that these filters need to 'add' to the posinc, but currently 
> nothing clears
> the attributes for end() [they are dirty, except offset which is set by the 
> tokenizer].
> Also the indexer should be changed to pull posIncAtt from end().
