Hi.

Sorry, the bug should have read:

In the bzr head:

1. emacs -Q
2. M-: (setq isearch-allow-scroll t)
3. Visit a file, any file.

4. Initiate an isearch with C-s
5. Type in incremental characters, taking point further into the buffer.
6. Terminate the search with C-u C-<space>

This should terminate the search and return to where the search started.
Instead, it pushes another mark, as though the C-u weren't typed.

This bug was also present in Emacs 23.2.  It was not present in 22.2.
