The search is actually run externally through Yahoo!, and like most of 
the very large-index search engines (Yahoo!, Google, MSN, etc.), the 
results count will skew and vary widely with each search.  In fact, I 
tried on us3.php.net and ru2.php.net and received two completely 
different results than you mentioned herein, and a second search for the 
exact same term on ru2 gave me yet another.

This is an unfortunate - but expected - side-effect of using a major 
search engine to catalog and search the site.
