I'd need to check the index file, but normally ind2's use is to skip the 
first X characters when ordering.  Ex to skip "The" at the beginning of 
a title.

Since our conversion to Koha we stopped using them, but data from previous systems has these indicators filled in. Upon inspection, in most cases the given value is even wrong somehow (0's are 1's etc.). But it doesn't seem to affect indexation.
