This is happening because the query is malformed.

Take for example the query se,phr:"Frank%20Einstein%20;" which is 

se,phr:"Frank Einstein"

but the semicolon is truncating the query so it looks to Koha 

se,phr:"Frank Einstein

which is not a problem on the staff side. Zebra seems to deal with this ok.

On the opac side though, we are adding on supression, so the query ends up like
this:

(se,phr:"Frank Einstein ) not Suppress=1

which zebra chokes on.

Removing the semicolon from the subject heading would fix this, but I imagine
that's a band-aid as the semi is part of the standard.

The semi is being treated as an ampersand. This is deep in the machinery (

Basically, the semi needs to be url encoded as %3B
