Thanks very much Stephan. Indeed it's in Admin Guide 5.1.2. I was using
en_GB, not C.
There is of course no excuse for failing to read every bit of smallprint in
the admin guide before installation :-) but for those lazy unfortunates like
me that don't think to look there to find out what's wrong when indexes
aren't used with LIKE, I've added a DocNote under Pattern Matching.
