One non-obvious thing that can change how queries are run is the
LOCALE / LC_COLLATE setting. If you have non-Western characters in
your results and your own C program is running in a different locale
to tracker-sparql for some reason, it might explain the issue. It
doesn't seem likely in this case though.

By default libtracker-sparql uses direct access for read queries,
meaning that it loads the Tracker database in your application process
and executes the query there - therefore, the tracker-store logs won't
show any evidence of the access because the query didn't reach the
tracker-store process itself at all. Write queries always go over DBus
to the tracker-store process, so you should see logging information of
those.
I believe if you set TRACKER_VERBOSITY=3 in the environment of your C
program you'll see the logs of the queries that are being run
in-process.
I hope some of this helps
Sam
