Change 132973 had a related patch set uploaded by Manybubbles:
Stop prefix: filter from searching redirects
Looks like lsearchd doesn't include redirects with intitle as well:

The reason prefix: includes redirects is because it "looks like" a prefix search, and prefix searches include them. It'll drop them when this is merged and released.
