Actually, unless I'm missing something that doesn't work either.

emacs -Q
Insert a few tabs using C-q TAB.  Insert `w'.
M-<.
C-s C-q TAB k

Highlighting shows that the TAB char is matched but the `k' char is a mismatch.

Now hit M-e.  Instead of placing the cursor at the mismatch (just before the
`k'), it places it before the TAB, at the beginning of the search string.

(Without your fix, the cursor was placed after the `k', which is also
incorrect.)

Am I missing something?
