AFAIK, the standalone reader never searched for a regexp with the `s'
command (and isn't even linked with the regexp library). IIRC, the
standalone reader was written _after_ the one in Emacs, not before it,
and was originally trying to emulate Emacs as much as was feasible;
evidently, the regexp-based search was one of those places where full
compatibility was deemed infeasible.
