Are you sure this didn't happen before October 17? From what I see,
quite contrary: Richard's changes were intended to fix the same bug
as you reported. But they are not even installed to CVS (though it's
strange that there is a ChangeLog entry already for uninstalled change).
So you can't see the effect of changes in isearch.el unless you applied
the proposed patch to your local source tree.
