It's already a known problem, but there's no easy solution.  Shell scripts
just can't easily read htdig config files, so you need to configure your
scripts to match your config files.  The latest 3.2.0b4 and 3.1.6 snapshots
in http://www.htdig.org/files/snapshots/ finally document rundig, and make
a note about such configuration issues.

I'm guessing that you're not using url_part_aliases correctly.
The documentation is, IMHO, crystal clear on the fact that you need two
separate definitions of this attribute, one in a config file for digging,
and the other in a config file for searching, yet a staggering number
of users ignore this advice and try to make do with one.

However, in your case, url_part_aliases is not the best attribute to do
what you want, as it wouldn't deal with suppression of duplicate entries
(with and without the trailing, albeit reencoded /index.htm).  Instead,
see http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#remove_default_doc
