Just to follow-up, I installed the snapshot as
recommended but my problem didn't go away until i
removed the "local_urls_only: true" that i'd added to
htdig.conf, so that was probably the problem.

Btw, searching the ht://Dig archives hasn't worked for
me at geocrawler.com: it never finds anything. 
Searching at mail-archive.com, works fine, otoh.

Thanks,
Gary
