I didn't put the index entries words into ascii-order; specifically I ordered them case-insensitively, but wrote them to the index file without clobbering case. However, after looking at the other index files shipped by debian and doing some empirical tests, it looks like dict-lookups are done case-insensitively in any event, so the fixed version simply writes the words to the file in the same order, but converted to all lowercase. Once again, this fixes this issue for me. I wonder how many more there are.
I'm taking some small comfort in the fact that the wnfilter output was subtly wrong for some entries back when it worked, as well. If we can get the dictd-format issues fixed, the databases built by wordnet_structures should actually be slightly better. > and you are right that to-do works.
