I spoke too soon.  :)  As soon as I sent the email, I had an idea for 
how to work around that.  The fix (with expanded test coverage, too) 
is now in SVN and the snapshots directory.  I think this should be 
the last of the fallout from the istype()-support index 
refactoring.  (Unfortunately, the test coverage that sufficed for the 
old index design did not suffice for the new design, which has a much 
higher number of combinations of types of criteria, including mixed criteria.)
