Yes, no difference.

As far as I can see, it's running "notmuch --format=text --output=files
<query>", and that works fine from the command line.

I attempted to do the edebug thing, but probably did it wrong.   It
didn't stop when I ran "G G".  But I suppose that could mean that nnir
doesn't know to be running notmuch?
