I know there is a conversion underway, but in the event no one knows:

1) http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/index.html
2) Search for 'SUPERUSER'
3) 'Your search for superuser returned no hits.'
4) -  - Click the Home link -- you remain in search ... or
- - - -  Click the Documentation link -- displayed are Online manuals
range from 7.4 to 8.3

Yeah, this is on our list of something that's broken, and we'll be
working on a fix soon. It works when you search on the static
documentation, but not the interactive.

.. and that's the other one. The quick-fix was to have the search site
never direct people back to the main site, but that breaks navigation
with those links. Unfortunately, the search site contains a lot of
workarounds for different things, so we need to tread carefully around
those.

Anyway - thanks for reporting it! We happened to have both of them on
the list already, but we appreciate the feedback nevertheless!
