Try this experiment in teachjove.  Go to the beginning of the paragraph after
the table of alternatives to query-replace-string.  Do a query-replace of edit
by edt, say.  At the first match type C-w, then C-x C-c without making any
more changes, the word appears to have been deleted.  At the next match just
hit return to leave query-replace.  Now type C-l C-l (or try to insert
something near the beginning of the line where the word was deleted), the
deleted word re-appears.  This patch to re1.c appears to fix the problem.
