As of 3.1.3, htdig not only strips out valid_punctuation, but also
breaks up words at the spots with punctuation, so that post-doctoral
will put postdoctoral, post and doctoral in the words database.
If you can't upgrade to 3.1.3, look at the patch archive for 3.1.2,
for my compound words patch. If you do upgrade, be sure you apply the
urlparmbug patch to 3.1.3. (BTW, 3.1.4 will be out before too long,
with several more fixes.)
