The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 11660
Logged by: David Levy
Email address: david(dot)g(dot)levy(at)gmail(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.3.5
Operating system: Windows 8 and RH Linux
Description:

I'm guessing that "out" is some kind of internal reserved word - I can't
find any documentation on this so submitting a bug until it can be
clarified/specified behavior:

-- First example returns true.
select to_tsvector('monkey outbreak') @@ to_tsquery('mon:*');

-- Second example returns false (bug?)
select to_tsvector('monkey outbreak') @@ to_tsquery('out:*');

No, but it's listed in english.stop. Feel free to make a custom
stopword list if you don't like that.

regression=# select to_tsquery('mon:*');
to_tsquery
------------
'mon':*
(1 row)

regression=# select to_tsquery('out:*');
NOTICE: text-search query contains only stop words or doesn't contain lexemes, ignored
to_tsquery
------------

(1 row)
