Right, each entry in lei.q is actually an entry in argv[].
So the correct query should look something like:
[lei]
q = (
q = dfn:drivers/block/floppy.c
q = OR

Yeah, that works, too. As long as spaces/tabs don't show up
within each argv[] element, it won't be interpreted as a phrase.
I really wanted: lei q s:"a quick brown fox"
to work from a shell like it would in the WWW UI;
and thus deprioritized '(' and ')' working properly :x
