Spotlight query operator NOT

Subject: Spotlight query operator NOT

Oddly enough the 2 Spotlight queries below match the very same files:

(( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'raja*')) && ( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'houdah*')))

(( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'raja*')) && ! ( ( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'houdah*')) ))

It's like the NOT operator is ignored. This is the same if I write the query like this:

( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'raja*')) AND (NOT ( ( (kMDItemTextContent like[cdw] 'houdah*')) )))


What gives?

Pierre
