Fixed, thanks.

This is a bug in XEmacs, in the definition of the variable `isearch-
mode-map'. In this map, all printing characters should be bound to
`isearch-printing-char', but the setup does not handle non-ascii
characters correctly, I believe. The purpose of this code is to
exactly handle packages like Org where all normal characters are bound
to a special function - but the implementation of this function is
incomplete. A better implementation could be to find all characters
that are bound to self-insert-command in the global map and make the
replacement binding for those.
Please report this as a bug to the XEmacs people, I do not have the
time to fix this myself.
