As of 2 weeks ago, it doesn't. You can verify that by running
(character-fold-to-regexp " ")
The regexp it returns doesn't contain newline chars.
isearch-lax-whitespace does treat space as NL, so maybe that's what
you're seeing.
I believe there's a bug in `isearch-search-fun-default' where even if
you disable `isearch-lax-whitespace', isearch sometimes uses
lax-whitespace anyway.
I would have fixed this myself, but I don't quite understand what that
code is trying to do and last time I asked for help nobody answered.
