Yes. It seems that an original text is found and an added one isn't found.
An example: <A HREF="http://www.apolyton.net/forums/Forum1/HTML/001910.html">Civ2-General/Help: The Great Library: a hierarchical structure</A>
Search: Match all search terms above, Search For Exact Name (case sensitive), Entire Message, Any date:
Search words:
1. (added text)
only 2nd level
result: 0 total
2. (original text)
fill missing topics
result: 1 total
The Great Library: a hierarchical structure SlowThinker March 29, 2001 Civ2-General/Help
The text comes from the starting post.
<hr>
But I have more bad examples and only one where added text was found: it was in the Apolyton/Community.

Is it possible to fix it?

It causes problems if we try to put "keywords" to threads:

LOL!
I tried to search for a deleted text: the system successfully found it!
There was "abcdef" in place of "deleted": http://www.apolyton.net/forums/Forum1/HTML/001910.htmlCiv2 "Great Library Index": direct download, Apolyton attachment

While you're talking about the search feature, there's one thing that would be really useful for me. Right now search only ids the thread... Could it instead send you to the correct message with the hit? This really becomes an issue with our Clash of Civs design discussion 3-4 page threads -- you have to go by hand to figure out where the right date is before searching for the text. It'd be great if the link from the search could put you right at the correct post!
I know this may be a UBB problem rather than Apolyton-specific. If its UBB that's to blame, can you request that the link from a search take you to the top of the relevant post?
