We'd find the same match twice if it was of zero length and not immediately
adjacent to the previous match.  replace_text_regexp() got similar cases
right, so adjust this search logic to match that.  Note that even though
the regexp_split_to_xxx() functions share this code, they did not display
equivalent misbehavior, because the second match would be considered
degenerate and ignored.
