Bug overview description.
When I perform a search containing at least one tag and an exclusion tag which contains the wildcard character (eg. tag1 -tag2*), the tags that should be excluded show up in search results.

What part(s) of the site page(s) are affected?
Post searches

What is the expected behavior?
Tags represented by the wildcarded exclusion tag should be excluded from the search.

What actual behavior is given instead?
Tags represented by the wildcarded exclusion tag are showing up.

Can you reproduce the bug every time?
Yes

What steps did you take to replicate this bug?
1. Search cup -holding*.
2. Check results for images containing a holding* tag (eg. holding_object).

Errors or other messages returned (if any).
None.

Other info
Searching the wildcarded exclusion tag by itself doesn't seem to produce this bug.

Dupe of forum #202883.
That search limitation has been around since the beginning of the site. From what I understand, it'd be pretty hard to fix.

Oh shit, it is too. Might as well lock/delete this one then.
