I committed a change to trunk to make non-regexp isearch match multiple
spaces via search-spaces-regexp.
As for regexp isearch, it seems disruptive to remove the feature now,
since some some users might have grown to rely on it. So I left regexp
isearch alone (i.e. it still does the multiple spaces matching).
It is now possible to change the variable `search-whitespace-regexp' and
give it a cons cell value, which specifies different behaviors for
ordinary and regexp isearch.
