You probably mean this thread, which is (apparently) unrelated to the
current bug:

I'll try emacs-22.0.96 as soon as I can get it built. In the mean time here
is the answers to all the other questions.
emacs-22.0.90 -Q
c-xc-f /etc/termcap
c-xc-q To make it writable
c-kc-kc-y kill the first line and put it back.
It will not do it without this line kill
c-s the do this until you leave the first screen displayed. This will
recenter the buffer on the "the" found. Then c-s for one more
"the" below but on the same display screen. For the GNU/Linux on
the redhat 4.0 release it was about 16 additional c-s commands to
get it. I think near the bottom will work also.
c-a this will recent the screen on the line where the "the" was at.

The problem shows up in 22.0.90, but is solved in 22.0.96.
I believe this is a bug I fixed. I think the fix was in isearch.el,
though that part of the memory is not clear.
However, I still get spurious undesirable scrolling once in a while,
not associated with isearch. I don't know what causes that.
