[Sorry to pick this up a month-and-a-half later, but I've only just gotten 
around to testing.] I can't reproduce the problem. I constructed a test app 
that I believe is what you're describing:

Navigation Controller
    Table View
        Table View's header view is a Search Bar
             UISearchBarController with this search bar as its search bar

So, I tap in the search bar and the search bar controller takes over the 
screen, with the search bar at the top. I type something into the search bar 
and table view items appear. I tap in a table view item, and in response to 
tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:, I push a new view controller onto the 
navigation controller's stack.

So far so good. And then when I tap the back button to pop the second view 
controller off the stack and return to my root view, everything is fine. It's 
just as it was before; we're still in the search bar controller's interface, 
the search bar is still at the top of the screen, my text is still in it. I've 
put a log on didReceiveMemoryWarning and I'm not receiving one. I've tried 
causing a memory warning manually, and then of course I receive it, but it 
makes no difference; I still come back to the root view just fine afterwards.

So I'm led to suspect that there's something else odd about the configuration 
in your app, something omitted from the description. m.
