General point: You hit ^S (actually ^] for me), then attempt to give
it the last killed string with ^Y... sorry, ^Y has a special different
function in i-searches... ("yank rest of line onto end of search
string, etc.")... alas, gotta grab a mouse to feed it since somebody
took away ^Y... hmmm, don't have a mouse... (yes, probably should use
non incremental search in this case, but having ^Y be different in
isearch is disturbing.)

Real bug: hit ^S ESC (non incremental search), hit ^Y to give it some
previously killed words. So far so good. But now notice that ^B, ^A
don't work to adjust those words. DEL, ^P, ^N are still ok, though.
[I just report 'em, not fix 'em. I don't have a source licence (just
joking).]
