Details:

if command used directly as "search.file passwd.txt myvar hint1 hint2" and not
as "search --file ...", then no_floppy=0 is hard coded. 

why not to require to set that parameter before hints, like this?

FUNC_NAME (args[0],                      /* key */
           argc == 1 ? 0 : args[1],      /* var */
           argc > 2 ? args[2][0] == '1', /* no_floppy */
           (args + 3),                   /* hints */
           argc > 3 ? argc - 3 : 0       /* hints count */
           );

It seems, that that bug is not only in search.file, but also in other search
commands.
