Both nndir and nndraft are derived from nnmh.  nnmh-directory is an
"oo" variable.  "oo" variables are copied between a derived backend
and its parent backend.  If your search tools are backends, you should
use nnoo-change-server and nnoo-parent-function to access the parent
backends.  If you just want to set "oo" variables, you should use
nnoo-set (only valid in the recent CVS).
