'-ista"?

[Joel S. Berson]

Why does "Quick search" in the OED for "-ista" bring me to the entry
for "be, v.", where I can't find "-ista"?  Or rather, my browser
tells me it is there 3 times, but won't show it to me?

Searching for, say, "-ing" works, although in addition to 4 "-ing"s
it also gives me "ing, n" = meadow.

Joel
