I'm afraid that's the basic problem with threading in Emacs: shared
state.  I don't know of a way to work around that.  I suppose you could
modify a lot of the agenda code to, e.g. store the position of the
current search in a variable and go to it before each search.  Of
course, that would also reduce performance to some extent.  It's a hard
problem.
