Yes, it seems so, unfortunately.
Thank you for reporting !
Our plan had been different: the NEWS entry for 3.3.1 (among 'BUG FIXES') says
• Use of Ctrl-C to terminate a reverse incremental search started
by Ctrl-R in the readline-based Unix terminal interface is now
supported when R was compiled against readline >= 6.0 (Ctrl-G
always worked). (PR#16603)
So we had hoped that change (fixing a bug you *should* have been
able to see with readline 6.2, as well) would work correctly in all
versions of readline >= 6.0,
but evidently it did not in yours.
