But you've still got the problem with page truncation!  You haven't
fixed the root cause of the problem, just found a way to avoid the
most drastic truncation (to 0 bytes, causing the 500 error).  Try the
URL:

http://iupac.org/cgi-bin/htsearch?config=htdig&restrict=www.iupac.org%2Fpublications%2F&exclude=www.iupac.org%2Fgoldbook%2F&method=and&format=builtin-long&sort=score&words=75857xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

and then do a View->Page Source, and look at the bottom of the page.
You'll see the HTML ends abruptly, without completing the footer section
of your nomatch.html page.

Have you even tried installing all the Red Hat errata update RPMs?
