BTW: the main question here is whether a C-1 prefix should be treated
the same as the absence of a prefix. AFAICT, the `arg` argument
of `kmacro-end-macro` is only used once, to pass it to `end-kbd-macro`,
and that function starts with:
if (NILP (repeat))
XSETFASTINT (repeat, 1);
else
CHECK_FIXNUM (repeat);
so, the absence of a prefix arg currently should indeed always behave
exactly as with a `C-1` arg.
IOW, I'm pretty sure now that there is not reason why not.
Stefan
