The most likely theory as to the source of the problem is that the locale
names used by the CentOS machine are not recognized by the FreeBSD OS,
and/or imply slightly different sort orderings. So a text index that's
correctly sorted according to the CentOS machine is not correctly sorted
according to FreeBSD, leading to search failures.
You could probably make this case work reliably if you used C locale on
both systems; the behavior of that is pretty portable.
