More than the obvious difference in results, no uses of NS_DECL_NSISUPPORTSWEAKREFERENCE show up in the first search, whereas they do in the second.

Can you give the url for what you're doing/seeing?  Also note that we don't record callers/users of macros, since the macros are gone by the time the compiler/analysis gets the code for indexing.  I just have a hack on the preprocessor to extract macro defs:
