Quite so.  However, you have to understand I didn't really expect
v19 to ever be released (any more than anyone who's been using VM
5 for a while expects it ever come out of beta.)  So I expected
the vm-isearch code to work for all eternity.

I will, if I'm feeling ambitious, base VM's next search mode on
the isearch-mode code.  Otherwise I'll implement a simple
non-incremental search.
