Ideally, one of these:

   * A self-contained script, patch, test case, or small tarball
     containing code which isolates and demonstrates the problem.
   * The output of "valgrind perl test_search.pl".

If neither of those is easy for you to produce, send some code  
fragments to the list and we'll see if anything jumps out.

OK.  Clearly $hits->next is used all over the test suite.  So,  
whatever is in your script isn't the kind of thing that the test  
suite's generic usage of $hits->next picks up.  I would appreciate  
your help in finding this problem.

Obligatory question: svn trunk passes all tests on this box, right?
