     Catch 22 here.  Assuming the relevant search terms are

        perldoc less

, neither Google nor Gmane

    http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Acygwin.com+perldoc+less
http://search.gmane.org/search.php?query=perldoc+less&group=gmane.os.cygwin&sort=relevance

have yet indexed the relevant sequence of messages (

        http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg00191.html
        http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg00197.html
        http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg00213.html

) and (as you noted) Cygwin.com's htDig index is off by two 
(http://sources.redhat.com/suggestions.html seems to imply that 
sourcemaster@sources.redhat.com is the correct place to report that, and I 
will).
