Merge Error

There seems to be another problem with the merging algorithm.  Now it’s corrupting the source indexers, causing some of the merged content to end up in the source as well as causing an abnormal number of terminations.  Gotta fix that before proceding.

Turns out that I was simply sharing the suffix lists of the first indexer that had a particular prefix with the merged content.  The merged content would be fine, but that source indexer would have extra, random terms thrown in.  Those random terms, since they weren’t in the original, would cause a lookup error when trying to look up possible suffixes by prefix.  That lookup error would cause an early termination.

In other words, bad things happen.

Anyway, should be fixed now.
