Those solutions are to merely one part of the bug, namely C-s wrongly
scrolling a window instead of moving onto the next one.
The other parts of #17453 are:
2: lazy highlighting is confined to one Follow Mode window (I'm a bit
confused as to the status of this, though);
3: With isearch-allow-scroll enabled, it is not possible to scroll point
to the next or previous Follow Mode window;
, in addition to which I have a fix for ...
4: With point near the bottom of a Follow Mode window, start an Isearch,
and repeatedly do M-s C-e, until the highlighted match continues on to
the next window. Continue doing M-s C-e until the string in the
minibuffer expands by a line. At this point the top of the RH window
gets spuriously scrolled into the middle of the window, leaving the FM
windows unsynchronised.

It needed to fix items 2, 3, and 4.
Sorry for causing this confusion.
