Yep, works fine in this manner. So, the problem indeed is the leading negate,
even with parentheses, it ig
Your query is really the same as
mfrid:18678 -categoryid:3876021
Which means select all documents with that mfrid value and then exclude from
that set all documents that have the specified categoryid.
Maybe what you wanted is
mfrid:18678 OR (*:* -categoryid:3876021)
or
q=(*:* !categoryid:3
Leading off with a negation does weird things. Try
(*:* AND NOT categoryid:387602) OR mfrid:18678
