In a version from October 17 it doesn't happen. Are you sure this didn't happen before October 17? From what I see, quite contrary: Richard's changes were intended to fix the same bug as you reported. But they are not even installed to CVS (though it's strange that there is a ChangeLog entry already for uninstalled change). So you can't see the effect of changes in isearch.el unless you applied the proposed patch to your local source tree. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
