This is a bit more tricky indeed.

In the html/search directory there are a number of .js files.
You need to replace '_5f_5fsdollar_5f_5f' with 's_24' there,
and also make sure the searchdata.js file has the letter 's' in indexSectionsWithContent for
the rows matching 'all' and 'functions', i.e. 

var indexSectionsWithContent =
{
  0: "st",
  1: "t",
  2: "s"
}; 

in your example.
