    * doc/lispref/searching.texi (Regexp Search, Simple Match Data):
    Document more carefully what happens to match data after a failed
    search.
    * src/search.c (Fmatch_beginning, Fmatch_end): Document that
    the return value is undefined if the last search failed.
    (Fmatch_data): Simplify doc string line 1.
