Search Results Paging Won't Show

I see that the pager_query is being called on line 147 of apachesolr_search.module :

pager_query("SELECT %d", $params['rows'], 0, NULL, $total);

And with my Devel module and IDE I see that the query being called is:

SELECT 75 LIMIT 0, 10

(75 being the $total) Is this how the query is supposed to look? No pager shows up even though a core search on the "Content" tab of search does show a pager... Very bizarre.

Am I the only one who is experiencing this problem in Drupal 5?

When I change the pager_query to something that makes more sense (for testing only):
pager_query("SELECT * FROM users", $params['rows'], 0, NULL);

The pager shows up... So the problem must be that the pager_query doesn't know how to interpret
pager_query("SELECT %d", $params['rows'], 0, NULL, $total);

Is there another way to give the pager_query the total?

This may not be the best solution but I decided to take the important parts of the pager_query function and use them within apachesolr_search_search()

To the top of the function I added:
global $pager_page_array, $pager_total, $pager_total_items;

I then replaced:
pager_query("SELECT %d", $params['rows'], 0, NULL, $total);

With:

$element = 0;
$pager_page_array = explode(',', $page);
$pager_total_items[$element] = $total;
$pager_total[$element] = ceil($pager_total_items[$element] / $params['rows']);
$pager_page_array[$element] = max(0, min((int)$pager_page_array[$element], ((int)$pager_total[$element]) - 1));
