Yes, that's what the docstring (C-h v inhibit-message RET) explains: "Do 
NOT set this globally to a non-nil value, as doing that will disable 
messages everywhere, including in I-search and other places where they are 
necessary.  This variable is intended to be let-bound around code that 
needs to disable messages temporarily."

So this works as designed, and I'm closing this bug report.
