This has bugged me forever about 21.2/4.
Do
C-i
Type something to search. When you find it hit
C-a
Then do:
C-i C-i
isearch then searches for the thing you looked for *before* the thing you
just found instead of searching for the same string again. Its *really*
annoying.

I'm totally confused. Did you bind C-i to isearch or something?
Even if I replace C-i with C-s, I simply don't see what you see...
For me it works the way it should.

C-s I mean. What happens if you try it under windows?

I don't do Windows. But apparently it works for Craig.
Let's go the standard debugging route. Does it misbehave the same way
when you invoke `xemacs -vanilla'? How about a clean XEmacs build
fresh from the tarball?
In the brave world of CVS and multiple workspaces it's easy to get
stranded with a broken version of <whatever>.

Seems like something triggers it. It doesn't happen in a newly started
XEmacs. Some sort of interaction with the kill-ring also as that sometimes
seems to be the text thats searched for.

Are you sure it's not some autoload?

Does the message log show any autoloads?

I see the same behavior as Andy, and it really drives me crazy. The
poor woman in the next cubicle must think I'm possessed the way I swear
at my computer.

Does it happen with `xemacs -vanilla' or with `xemacs -q'?
In Andy's case, it doesn't. If the same goes for you, could you
please trace which part of your `.emacs' causes the misbehavior? A
"smart" package? A strange and harmful Custom setting?

Its not that simple. I don't get it with my .emacs. At some point during my
editing it starts happening.

If it's really unrelated to autoloads, or some evil mode, it could
be a nasty memory corruption error (improper gcpro's, etc.). If so,
good luck tracking it down.

I'm using Windows Native. I see it on both binary downloads and my own
builds. I think it started around the time the shifted-motion keys were
introduced. Other than that, my reports are the same as Andy's, that
is, I see no problem in fresh emacs, whether not I use vanilla. But it
crops up regularly as soon as I start to do a lot of kill-search-yank
editing.
