I checked for the patch at:
ftp://sol.ccsf.cc.ca.us/htdig-patches/3.0.8b2/
and couldn't find one in the 00INDEX file.  Does anyone know where the
patch to enable partial word searches would be located?

When you say support will be included for the next release, do you mean the
Java ht://dig 4.0?  or will there be another release of the 3.0 series?
