-- 1.6 has added NEAR searches. Unlike what recoll did with PHRASES,
-  stemming expansion is performed on terms inside NEAR clauses (except if
-  prevented by a capitalized entry of course). There is a bug in Xapian at
-  least up to 0.9.9, where NEAR does not support multiple OR subclauses, as
-  would result from a multiple expansion. This manifests itself by a 'not
-  implemented' xapian exception and a recoll crash.

 - If you are seeing a delay of a few seconds before the result list
   displays for the first query of a recoll instance, try changing the
   result list font in the query preferences. This is not a recoll problem,
