yes. 

But I think I got confused, because I used re-search-forward in a while
loop and tried to replace the matches, but the REPLACEMENT didn't work,
the search did - the message "search-failed" was only from the last
iteration in the while loop when no matches were left. 

Ok, I got it - thanks for the help and sorry for the noise.
