Yes, it's a bug of htsearch, I reproduced it just right now, and it's
actually core-dumping.
To solve it, a one-liner patch is needed in parser.cc to append a 'return'
statement that lacked.
In fact, this whould happen with every query containing two successive
ignored words (e.g '10 20').
Remember that words with length under 3 will be ignored by default by htdig.

The patch is *so much* short that I append it herein. Used parser.cc version
1.22.2.8
