Hm.  It is not clear to me why this would work and the following
wouldn't:

C-u G G ^Subject: some thing$ RET groupN RET

Hm.  Can you M-x load-library RET nnir.el RET, then set debug-on-error
to t, then try again and send me the backtrace?

What happens if you try to search for `^Subject: some thing$'
_without_ specifying a groupspec (ie, `G G' rather than `C-u G G')?

PS: The limit-to-certain-groups thing is horribly broken, I think.
Right now, it does `glimpse -Fprefix\;groupspec query' (many other
args omitted).  Ie, there is one -F argument which contains a logical
AND of two conditions: one is that the prefix must be present and the
other is that the groupspec must be present.  Suggestions for doing
this better are gladly appreciated.
