For those interested in this thread:

Steve Koterski offered one other suggestion to me:

Although there was no Unique constraint on the index involved and
there were no 'soft-deleted' records, I did a Pack then a reindex.
After this, the sql statement and the dml statements resulted in the
same results.

I hope the dBASE developers will look into this.
