Subject: doc-id searches only match last record in the file
Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2021 08:43:58 -0700

I use:  Editor:      GNU Emacs 27.2 (build 1, x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0, Carbon Version 158 AppKit 1561.6)

        Hyperbole:   7.1.3
        Sys Type:    x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0
        OS Type:     darwin
        Window Sys:  mac
        News Reader: Gnus v5.13

If you setup a file like what's at the end of the email, setup the
doc-id-indices variable (NB:  the documentation for that variables needs
updating as it says it's a list but it throws an error on a list and
works with a filename passed in as a string), and add two doc-id links
like the following:

[BigBaboonNation-001]
[BigBaboon-001]

Hyperbole will only find the 'BigBaboon-001' entry.  For the
'BigBaboonNation-001' entry, you'll receive the following error:

   Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil

If I switch the entry order in the file, the behavior will swap with
'BigBaboonNation-001' matching.
