Hi, thanks for the info
I will not have access to a sid box until next week, but there is some
additional info I would appreciate,
a) Which spellchecker you are using under emacs (`ispell-program-name')?
b) Does this problem appears also for emacs23? (I could not reproduce
it with wheezy emacs23). This should help discarding if the problem
is in emacs24 search functions because both use similar ispell.el.

I should look at this. An useful workaround may be to use emacs
-no-site-file and then explicitely load something like
"/usr/share/emacs/24.3.50/lisp/textmodes/ispell.elc" (Fix version
here, that is for emacs-snapshot wheezy backport not enabled by
dictionaries-common).
