Indeed, the web search is broken - there is a huge delay before the
messages get indexed.

The nicest way is indeed to download locally from
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/mbox/emacs-devel/
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/mbox/bug-gnu-emacs/

This gives the power of using grep with any regexps, and even
special mailbox searching programs like `grepmail` that can match
on headers, mail body and MIME attachments.
