Thanks, but now you cannot do isearch at all. It simply throws "Symbol's
value as variable is void: isearch--curent-buffer".

BTW, in my case the cause of the problem was indeed switching of buffers
during the isearch, but in it was happening in polymodes when changing
the indirect buffers for different mode chunks.

Strangely enough, after the emacs update of about 2 weeks ago I have
never encountered the problem again. It seems that my problem was fixed
even before the current "fix".
