I have this problem on my 3100.  isearch-forward exhibits the same behavior.
Reverse search (isearch- backward) works fine.

A related (I think) problem is that after typing (say) Meta-X, following 
characters are taken as control characters even though they weren't typed 
that way!!!! I call this feature 'Compose-mode' because it can be gotten 
out of by pressing the Compose key again.

Ideas, anyone?
