Buddypress global search compatibility issue

Hi, I am using buddypress with the buddypress global search plugin.

There appears to be a compatibility issue between relevanssi and buddypress global search as when relevanssi is active my search results page returns no results, just a blank page.

I am using the global search plugin to search buddypress specific features such as members, groups, activities, etc.

I have several custom post types and taxonomies registered on non buddypress sections of the site for which I’d like to use the relevanssi search.

I found I could do this with the following code to disable relevanssi until needed:

// prevent relevanssi breaking our buddyress global search plugin...
// remove relevanssi in all cases unless we manually run a relevanssi_do_query
function pobl_buddypress_no_relevanssi($query) {
	remove_filter('posts_request', 'relevanssi_prevent_default_request'); 
	remove_filter('the_posts', 'relevanssi_query');
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'pobl_buddypress_no_relevanssi' );

Then when querying my custom post types I simply use:

relevanssi_do_query($my_query);

This works fine for me in relevanssi 3.5.12 but has stopped working since upgrading to 3.6.2.1

If I roll back to 3.5.12 it works again.

Has anything changed that would cause these to no longer work:

	remove_filter('posts_request', 'relevanssi_prevent_default_request'); 
	remove_filter('the_posts', 'relevanssi_query');
