Ah.  I wasn't aware of this new feature.

16.  The problem was that the submatch highlight was light magenta on
dark magenta, which I just didn't see.  Maybe the colours used for
isearch-group-1 on a 16 colour terminal are suboptimal.  They certainly
don't work well on my Linux virtual tty.

However, on pressing backspace to go back to previous matches, this new
highlighting is no longer there.

So, perhaps there is/are (a) bug(s) here after all, just not the one I
thought I'd found.

Thanks.
