Sure seems that way to me.  You said:

But if you've relaxed about that, fine.

No.  _None_ of those are indexed in the build I reported on.  Perhaps you are
seeing them now because Lars added them in response to this bug report?  As I
said earlier, and to which Lars agreed:

I agree about that.  The same cannot be said however for the case I cited:

D> We say what the undecided-* coding systems do wrt end-of-line
D> conversion, and we mention their aliases.
