It was probably just an oversight, because whether we're searching
within strings or within buffers the same problems appear with \{N\}
repetitions (where the counter is stored directly inside the
regexp-byte-code) and with on-the-fly strength-reduction (where we
replace some byte-code with cheaper ones (where applicable) on the first
pass through the regexp).
