DuckDuckGo's "lite" interface is failing multi-word queries using w3m.

lite.duckduckgo.com/lite/ is a stripped-down basic interface to DuckDuckGo. I use this both with a Bash shell function that allows me to search straight from the commandline, and within w3m.

Both are failing any multi-word queries presently.

E.g., I can search "water", but not "why is water wet".

The latter search does work from within Chrome/Android.
