GNU Emacs 18.52.6 of Tue Sep  6 1988 on wind (berkeley-unix)

Why is it that calling replace-regexp from an Emacs program sets the
mark and prints "done"?  It seems to me that this is only necessary
when it is called interactively.  In fact, it really looks bad in the
program I'm writing and I don't know of any way to turn it off.
