need to call notmuch_threads_get (..) to actually move iterator

Really might be the issue: Threads with many messages duplicate more
often than messages with few messages. Threads with only one message
never seem to come up more than twice.
Currently I don't have the time to track down what actually get's stored
in match_set, would be nice if a dev could shed some light on it. Thx!
