I don't understand what do you propose. Currently the error message
is already before the prompt and looks like:
Failing I-search backward: bar
but overwrites the minibuffer content. With `minibuffer-message'
it looks like:
I-search backward: foo [Failing I-search backward: bar]
If necessary, we can make the error message shorter like:
I-search backward: foo [Failing: bar]
Anyway, to show the failed search string is more important than
the minibuffer content.
