I don't know about the dupe finder, but I know that the standard bug
search is not finding the authoritative bug if it doesn't have a bug
task for project you filed the dupe on.

I filed #699891 on oops-tools, and it was marked as a dupe #661266,
which was an Apache OpenID bug.  Afterward, searching "openid" on
"oops-tools" found nothing.

I thought that was the issue at first, but I found that adding "openid"
to #661266 title did not make it possible to find it using a bug search
on oop-tools.  So I added a bug task on oops-tools.
