Checked that first -- it's a test site with a small sample size.  The field
is set in all of the items.  And refreshing the query a few times can yield
either result (with/without the error).

I'm reverting back to an old version of my stack (my code, plus tomcat &
solr), I'll step through my previous work slowly to see if I can pinpoint
what breaks it.  If I can (ever) determine what caused it then I'll post it.

Thanks!
