Subject: bug#62355: 30.0.50; C-g doesn't always quit minibuffer on first press

Hello,
I've been seeing something similar and I have a theory as to the cause.
I am using Icomplete, and I think what happens is that the C-g
interrupts something Icomplete is doing, rather than serving to exit the
minibuffer. Toon, are you using Icomplete or similar?
Here is my evidence. One machine on which I use Emacs is underpowered.
With icomplete-show-matches-on-no-input non-nil, on that machine, I type
M-x, and wait for the completions to appear. I do this several times so
that I have an intuitive sense for how long they take to appear. And
then I type M-x, and try to hit C-g while Icomplete is computing. I can
reliably trigger the bug. If I instead wait two or three seconds after
typing M-x, it never occurs.
