Subject: 24.4.51; Isearch is broken in comints which relly on regexp
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2015 10:10:02 +0100

Recent changes to commit to allow for multiline search assume fields
throughout. The common case when comint-use-prompt-regexp is non-nil is
not captured.

To see the problem start shell and issue a couple of commands. Then
(setq comint-use-prompt-regexp t), and add a couple of RETs. Then try M-r.

You should see "Regexp history I-search backward:" several lines above
where it should be and isearch will not work as expected.

If you restart your shell, you will not even see the "Regexp history
I-search backward:" as there are no fields in the buffer.
