I figured this out and am posting for the (hopefully small) portion of
users who are tripped up on the same issue. The LSMaxSearchCount
configuration parameter has a documented
(http://docs.opengroupware.org/Members/olivier/List%20of%20Defaults/document_view)
default value of "". A quick check using Defaults read on the two
systems shows LSMaxSearchCount = "" on the old installation but no
entry at all on the new installation. A careful look at the logged
queries indicates that data was retrieved only on the lowest 100
company_ids which matched the qualifier. Evidently, there is an
implicit limit of 100 records returned in the case that
LSMaxSearchCount is not set. Setting LSMaxSearchCount in the new
installation clears up the problem of truncated result sets.
