Subject: bug#43376: A more aware "compilation process is running; kill it? (yes or no) "

Yes, one would think: "When we realize that now there is nothing to ask
about, just go ahead and do what the user originally wanted (run the
second compilation.)"

OK, but maybe he forgot he had a compilation running, and at least he
would like to see the output first before running the second
compilation.

So maybe when we realize there is nothing left to ask the user about,
first throwaway any answer he already started typing,
and change the question to just
"proceed? (y or n)".
