The bug is about the behaviour of the elisp function's implementation
vs. the command line tool shipped with the OS. Thus, the code I
suggested is a workaround. I'm also the contributor of
eudc-macos-contacts-search-helper, btw.

That said, and as it doesn't seem to have bitten anyone else, it's
probably best to close the issue.


Many thanks and cheers,
