I sometimes want to search the GCC mailing lists (usually gcc-testresults)
for a specific string, say the name of a failng test like
'27_io/objects/wchar_t/7.cc' but when I do that, regardless of whether or not 
I put the string in single or double quotes, the search breaks the string
up into different 'words' and searches for them individually.  For the
testcase above, the result page says:

Search for 27_io/objects/wchar_t/7.cc. Search results: 27 : 484563, io : 521358, objects : 36554, wchar : 375671, t : 703370, 7 : 362498, cc : 1617498.

I have tried playing with the 'Words forms' and 'Search for' options on the
search page but I haven't found a way to search the mailing list for a specific
string that contains slashes, digits, and underscores without the search
breaking it up into individual 'words'.

It looks like the search is powered by mnoGoSearch, but my searches of
that documentation didn't find anything helpful on this subject.  Does
anyone know if it is possible to search for a specific (non-word) string
in the GCC mailing lists?
