Thank you Jack. I thought that the filter only removed tokens with
both identical position and identical text:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory

Are stemmed terms considered the same text as the original word, such
that they will show as a dupe fo the
RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory? That seems odd.
