Ctrl+R breaks `less' searches

Hi folks,
Use of Ctrl+R in a `less' search breaks the search unless one has already
succeeded.
For example, I have a file with the word "book" on line 2.
Session 1:
/book
(it finds book)
Session 2:
/~Rbook
Pattern not found
Session 3:
/book
(it finds book)
<home>
/~Rbook
(it finds book)
This doesn't happen on Linux. IIRC my $LESS variable and .lesskey file are
the same in both places.
I hope this makes sense,
