Double-checked this. Search string and version in the page is the same. In fact,
copied and pasted directly from my browser window into the search page.

hmmmm... the only problem with this line of thought is that if é isn't being
properly converted, it wouldn't be converted across the entire website, so we'd never
see the search string in htdig's results... Also, I'm running 3.1.5, not any of the
3.2 snapshots.

Actually, I didn't index this particular site until after reconfiguring its locale. I
reindexed the site (just to be on the safe side) using first htdig -i -c
/path/to/config and then htmerge -c /path/to/config. The results of an "ALL" search
for 'Litt�rature francophone virtuelle' remain the same - 54 results, without the
target page entitled 'Litt�rature francophone virtuelle'.
