Ah, looks like "$1" is probably a PHP dependency. From
includes/SpecialSearch.php:
$wgOut->addWikiText( wfMsg( 'noexactmatch', wfEscapeWikiText( $term ) )
);
What I need is the search term being passed to the special search page.
I don't know another way to get this value using only wikitext. I
suppose I could modify the above source line to escape space
characters....

You can see $1 used in [[MediaWiki:Noexactmatch]] :
'''There is no page titled "$1".''' You can
[[:$1|create this page]].
