Chris, thanks for your help.  I came to the same conclusions about using
the ChainedFilter.  However there are situations where applying a filter
at the end wouldn't work. Consider the same two filtered queries plus
and an OR:

(FilteredQuery1 AND FilteredQuery2) OR TermQuery

Where TermQuery can be pretty much anything.  The ChainedFilter would
restrict the TermQuery docs from appearing in the hits, even though it
shouldn't.  If the FilteredQuerys worked properly, they could be put in
a BooleanQuery and then a BooleanClause.  That's why I was doing that
way.

Peter

Peter's problem intrigued me, so I wrote my own test case using two
simple
Filters that filter out all but the first (or last) doc.  I seem to be
getting the same results he is, which is certianly.  see attached test
case.

while this definitely seems like a bug, it also seems like a fairly
inefficinent way of approaching hte problem in general, instead of:
  BooleanQuery containing:
    a) FilteredQuery wrapping:
        Query for "all" -- filtered by -- RangeFilter #1
    b) FilteredQuery wrapping:
        Query for "all" -- filtered by -- RangeFilter #2

...it seems like it would make more sense to use...

  FilterQuery wrapping:
    Query for all -- filtered by -- ChainedFilter containing:
      a) RangeFilter #1
      b) RangeFilter #2
