Doing an advanced search in the staff client using 

drop down "Title"
search for "Black and Decker"

The first search result is

The complete guide to patios : plan, build and maintain
by Schmidt, Philip. Black & Decker Corporation (Towson, Md.)

Where 'Schmidt, Philip' and 'Black & Decker Corporation (Towson, Md.)' are
separate author links.

The link under 'Black & Decker Corporation (Towson, Md.)'

Is

http://.../cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?q=au:%22Black%20&%20Decker%20Corporation%20(Towson,%20Md.)%22

This is a keyword search, rather than search by phrase, so the most relevant
results are all authors with 'Black' in their names, rather than 'Black &
Decker', which would have ranked higher in a search by phrase. 

The library is *not* using queryparser.

Indexing using DOM.

Possibly related bugs:

The library in question is using authorities, but the bug description doesn't
really match.

 Cross-Reference links to authorized fields give incomplete search results

This is old, and marked as 'pushed' it seems relevant, but I'm not sure.

 Change the link in the authority search results to a phrase search

Not directly related, but it also has to do with cross reference links...
