If you do for example
C-s some. M-s h r
then the search string from isearch is not quoted when highlight-regexp
gets it which means it will match for example "something".

I don't understand. How is this a bug?

C-s and then "some." just matches the string "some.". If it is converted
to a regexp without quoting it will also match "somet" and that was not
what the user wanted.
I think this worked before. Something went wrong when you (was it you?)
took care of the case insensitive problem.
