I cannot reproduce this.  Please tell what value of
search-whitespace-regexp you used, how exactly did you change the
value, and what did you try in a Texinfo buffer that didn't work.

I changed search-whitespace-regexp via customize-variable, selected
the option labeled "Tabs, spaces and line breaks" there, clicked
Apply, then tried to search for "SOME THING" where I saw SOME\nTHING
in the buffer, and C-s did find that.
