inhibit_quit inhibits process_quit_flag(), but not
process_pending_signals(), if I'm reading this correctly:

#define QUIT                        \
  do {                            \
    if (!NILP (Vquit_flag) && NILP (Vinhibit_quit))    \
      process_quit_flag ();                \
    else if (pending_signals)                \
      process_pending_signals ();            \
  } while (false)

Maybe it should.
