Yes, another good lesson is to post bug reports to SF.net so we can also track them. ;-)

 The backward-compatible fix is to fix  htsearch  (a five
line patch)
Let's do this ASAP. We can back it out later, but at least the code will be temporarily consistent.

but the more elegand solution would be to
change  htdig  to treat the two consistently.  My
preference would be to specify the *true* location of all
words, even counting short words.  That way we could
distinguish between a true phrase match and a "phrase
match, but possibly with short words in between".
Yes, I agree that this is The Right Way(tm). It's definitely a bug that it's not currently specifying the *true* location of words.

BTW, do you have a SourceForge account? We should get you CVS access.

Cheers,
