OK, WireGuard is in the body, there...

Likewise, DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER only appears in the body.

Since you're on mda, I think it's related to the mda + message body
indexing fixes I posted:

  https://public-inbox.org/meta/20180729093441.5250-1-e@80x24.org/

I think it takes about 3-4 hours to reindex my local LKML
archives on my fastest SSD (way longer on a slower SSD),
so it might only take around 2 hours onthe machine used for lore.

Oops.  We'll have to tweak the ordering for giant threads to
favor newer messages.  Gotta run for a bit but should be done
today.

I've got my own; but it might be worth looking into supporting
remote indices a feature of Xapian.
