See this comment in the code:
;; To handle local bindings with meta char prefix keys, define
;; another full keymap. This must be done for any other prefix
;; keys as well, one full keymap per char of the prefix key. It
;; would be simpler to disable the global keymap, and/or have a
;; default local key binding for any key not otherwise bound.
(let ((meta-map (make-sparse-keymap)))
(define-key map (char-to-string meta-prefix-char) meta-map)
(define-key map [escape] meta-map))
(define-key map (vector meta-prefix-char t) 'isearch-other-meta-char)
