Comment (by tteggel):

 Just wanted to add that we're seeing Google indexing some pages like this,
 and we're getting quite a bit of traffic too.

 For others that stumble on this before the fix is ready a workaround is to
 add a redirect rule to your site (I used the WPEngine dashboard) to
 redirect from these search feed pages to your home page. The regex below
 might be useful.


 {{{
 ^/search/[^/]*/feed/[^/]*/?$
 }}}
