[htdig] Missing entities in search results and translate_* directives

[Neil Kohl]

I'm using htdig/3.1.5 on Solaris 7. 

We've got a collection of documents, some of which have entities in the <TITLE>; the 
title is returned in the search results. A tester noticed that the entities were being 
dropped in the search results listings for documents that had entities in the <TITLE>.

The config file for this instance of htdig didn't have any translate_* directives, so 
I added them. I still can't find a combination of translate_* settings that will cause 
the entites to appear correctly in the search results. 

Here's what I've found:
translate_amp: true/false and translate_lt_gt: true cause the entity to drop out.

translate_amp: true/false and translate_lt_gt: false cause &amp;lt; to appear in the 
HTML source of search results, with &lt; appearing in the browser. 

Any insights or workarounds?
