Can't replicate this in 2.0.7. Is this only for the 2.1.x branch then?

Searching for a single ,,comma,, generates a sql error message.

e.g.:

http://wordpress-deutschland.org/?s=,

results in:

    "WordPress Datenbank-Fehler: [You have an error in your SQL syntax;
check the
manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax
to 
use near ') AND (post_type = 'post' AND (post_status = 'publish')) ORDER
BY 
post_date DE' at line 1] 
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wpdorg_posts.* FROM wpdorg_posts WHERE 1=1 AND
() 
AND (post_type = 'post' AND (post_status = 'publish')) ORDER BY post_date
DESC
LIMIT 0, 10"
