mnemosyne:string_to_handle pb !

[s. n. wight]

I agree with Uffe on this for sure - the match_object function is
beautiful and performs 90% of the query operations I need to do!

But I had a very similar looking problem in September and Dan Gudmundsson 
sent out a simple patch which fixes this problem (YMMV!):

Otherwise, heed Ulf's sound advice, below!
