bug#74713: 30.0.92; keyboard macros with input method abort with <with-input-method>

[Roland Winkler]

With 'emacs -Q' open a text file.
Select an input method.  (I tested german and TeX.)
Define the following keybord macro (search for a character in your file)

  C-x ( C-s 1 RET C-x )

Call the keyboard macro C-x e
This gives the message

  kmacro-call-macro: Keyboard macro terminated by a command ringing the bell

Inspection of the macro via M-x edit-last-kbd-macro shows 
that it contains a (spurious?) line

  <with-input-method>

If this line is removed, the macro runs as expected.

This regression appeared in Emacs 25.1.  The with-input-method thingie
comes from isearch-x.el, which see.

Maybe bisection between Emacs 24.5 and Emacs 25.1 will help find the
culprit, because I don't have a good idea where to look for it.

Thanks.
