Thanks for testing it.

To see the positive effect of that statement, is setting
`isearch-allow-scroll' to t required?

For me, the following recipe still has issues, even with that line
added to the patch:

emacs -Q
M-x set-variable isearch-allow-scroll t
C-r M-` i

The "Isearch" menu should now be shown in the *Completions* window,
but instead Isearch actually searches for the character "i" in the
minibuffer.  If we can inhibit that then we should be fine.  (It looks
like Isearch is not happy about commands switching the current buffer
behind its back.)

As for the TTY menus, adding "(put 'menu-bar-open 'isearch-scroll t)"
and enabling `isearch-allow-scroll' allows use of the new menu during
Isearch from a TTY.  Thanks Eli!
