bug#20887: 'make bootstrap' now verrrry slow due to recent isearch changes

[Artur Malabarba]

I don't know. Frankly, a bootstrap of 5 min seems incredibly fast, :)
mine always takes at least 10.

When I reporte the change added 5 sec to compile time, I was testing
the following:
    (benchmark-run 1 (byte-compile-file (buffer-file-name)))
which reports 3.13 seconds for me.

Does anyone know what could cause these 4 seconds to become 5 min
during bootstrap?
Does bootstrap compile the file 60 times? =P

If botstrap loads that code without compiling first, then it could
take about 10 seconds, but that still doesn't account for so much.
