Description

Version: 1.2-RC3

I've created an index of UTF-8 encoded documents and making sure that all
queries are converted to UTF-8. When searching the index with query containing
non-ascii UTF-8 characters and an asterisk, no results are found even though
there are documents that contain the query word. Searching does work when query
doesn't contain non-ascii UTF-8 characters or without asterisk works always.
Test results with swedish words:
"födde" - works ok, returns documents.
"född*" - doesn't return any results.
"född" - works ok, returns documents.
"kom*" - works ok, returns documents.
