Hrm, I swear I tried it in 4.0.6 and it didn't work.  But I just tried
again (with 4.0.3, I haven't upgraded the machines at work yet) and it
worked, so I must have flubbed something last night.

In that case, Steve can do:

function vi-repeat-incremental-search-backward {
 bindkey -e
 zle -U $'\C-r'
 zle history-incremental-search-backward
 bindkey -v
}
zle -N vi-repeat-incremental-search-backward
bindkey -a N vi-repeat-incremental-search-backward

(The "bindkey" commands shouldn't be necessary, but the keymap for h-i-s-b
is messed up when you enter it from vicmd.)
