Adding from the IRC logs:

(3:34:35 PM) jcamins: If they use EBOOK, that might work. I'm not sure.
(3:34:55 PM) trea: you think the issue is the hyphen?
(3:35:05 PM) jcamins: It makes it a separate word.
(3:36:22 PM) jcamins: Combined with the fact that ,phr doesn't actually use the
phrase indexes, it just uses unfuzzy matching on the word index, BOOK logically
*should* find results for E-BOOK.
(3:36:30 PM) jcamins: I mean, given the way C4::Search works.
(3:36:40 PM) jcamins: Since C4::Search is broken.
(3:37:00 PM) jcamins: Because obviously that's not what it should be doing if
the system worked the way we wanted it to.
(3:38:09 PM) trea: so, to summate, dont' do that!
(3:38:21 PM) trea: use unique strings for itype codes
(3:38:55 PM) jcamins: Right.
(3:39:17 PM) jcamins: Use unique strings for *all* authorized values.
(3:39:44 PM) trea: add it to the bug :P
(3:39:46 PM) jcamins: Or at least don't use any hyphens, if you feel you need
similar codes.
