I'll throw UdmSearch in the mix.  http://search.mnogo.ru/  Tons of features,
extremely flexible and powerful.  The indexer is written in c++, it works
with MySQL, Postgresql, Oracle, and an internal db format, has a CGI and PHP
front-end and can do just about everything under the sun.  You can testdrive
a demo at http://udm.aspseek.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi.

Back in hiding I go.  My new job and 150 mile per day commute doesn't allow
me much time to drop in this list and help out.
