Not sure about an embeddable library, but here are a couple good
standalone indexing/search engines:
http://htdig.org/ is open source, and is perl
ht//dig is quite nice, but it's C++, and there are some issues to make
it work on Mac OS X with accented text, because of incompatibilities
between the "locale" functions of various Unix:
On 10.2, a small change in the source code is needed to make it work
(changing a LC_ALL to LC_CTYPE) in Configuration::AddParsed(). This
change may have been included in the official distribution, I'm not
sure.
On 10.1, setlocale() seems to be broken beyond repair, and an ugly hack
to remove accents before indexing was needed.
