In line with my previous posting on October 19, 2009 (‘A few’ or ‘few’), I find the following headline in another national English daily (January 9, 2010) worth mentioning.
Hurt runs deep with little clue on missing girl.
From the news proper, readers would be able to perceive that the above adjective 'little' would mean 'hardly any'.
