Take un medium file : 4000 lines
Set a match for a search
build the macro
C-a ;; move-beginning-of-line
2*C-k ;; kill-line
C-x C-x ;; exchange-point-and-mark
C-y ;; yank
2*C-s ;; isearch-forward
C-a ;; move-beginning-of-line
this macro normally groups all lines who contain the match.
If two matches are more distant than about 50 lines the second match
is not found, but the macro can be repeated !
this bug exists in 22- versions and last 23-version on Mac.

It seems to work when I tried it.
Can you give a complete example? Attach a (perhaps compressed) example
file, and show exactly what you typed, starting from `emacs -Q', and
what happened.

I think this effect exists on Mac OS with Intel proc. In the past
version on Fedora Scientific Linux) my macro work on the very big
files (> 40Mo). It is possible there are conflict with my sartup. I
see the cursor points in bad line, then it will be a bad section àf
file which show in window (why?).
So, i prepare a test with your guide line.
Thank Andrew

I have forgotten that :
in my problem, file is build with very long lines (frequently 500
bytes) on Mac Intosh. There are very important difference between
logical lines (in file) and physical lines (in window).
the X-windows has not good position after execution my macro when two
consecutive matches are very distant and require a refresh of the
screen.

Then I imagine this is the same issue as
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=7046
ie visual-line-mode can affect the way macros behave.
