Should I file a bug report? Any fix that concerns only the =E2=80=98search-forward=E2=80=99 expression = is not desirable; we must not think of the code as absolutely wrong, but instead, in what cases is it right and in what cases is it wrong. To do that, we need to understand its function and its context. It looks like the purpose of the fragment: (search-forward "") (delete-region opoint (match-beginning 0)) is to delete that =E2=80=98meta=E2=80=99 element, so the best fix would be = to not bother trying to delete it if it's already not there.
