isearch and a "normal" yank?

[Douglas Lewan]

Hi, everyone,

How can I search for text that's in the "normal" kill ring?  That is, what I
would get, say, in fundamental mode?

That asked, can anyone motivate necessarily the default C-y and C-w in
isearch- functions?

(The problem at hand is looking through 14000 lines of nightly build output
for errors that cron mails me.)

Thanks.

,Doug
