Yes, very likely.  

I suppose that cwb-make tried to index the "tense" attribute before the "word" attribute and aborted when it detected the error, leaving "word" without a valid index.  Since your query uses an index lookup on a non-existing index, it doesn't find any matches.

One might argue that it should produce an error message instead, but the godfather of CQP may have deemed otherwise ...
