These key bindings are set inside hi-lock.el itself. `C-x w' is defined only when 'hi-lock-mode' is active but `M-s h' is always available, so `C-x w' is redundant. BTW, do you think that adding `overriding-temporary-local-map' could help you to implement `isearch-allow-prefix' that you proposed in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-09/msg00216.html There is an unaddressed request for this feature in bug#9706.
