Hmm, no - that doesn't seem right. The culprit is the web/bb-ack.c line 257:
   sprintf(cmd + strlen(cmd), " page=^%s$", pagename);
That's a regular expression for matching the pagename. It should
probably just have the '$' at the end removed, so it becomes
   sprintf(cmd + strlen(cmd), " page=^%s", pagename);
