Without a sample of what is wrong, or a better description of the bug,
I have to assume that the original reporter either wants to come up to
3.8.8 or apply 1f4fa271b9e9c78104257f729f3046f9c30694e0 which fixes a
bug where the column headers and column bodies might not be in sync.

Thanks for the replies, all.
It was a bug in RT, fixed in 3.8.8.
This is fixed by changing the offending character in
share/html/Search/Results.tsv (the only difference
in that file between 3.8.7 and 3.8.8). I suspect
that's what 1f4fa271b9e9c78104257f729f3046f9c30694e0
entails.
