I guess my other mail explains that. The select-window happens
in code that interrupts the ``main thread'' at an arbitrary point.
I wished Emacs would crash when something like that is tried ):-).
We could set that up easily enough. Fselect_window and some other
places can check interrupt_input_blocked and abort if that is nonzero.
We could make a macro to do that.
Gerd, I see you created a variable handling_signal and made Feval
abort if that is nonzero. Was there a reason you used handling_signal
rather than interrupt_input_blocked? interrupt_input_blocked can be
nonzero outside of signal handling in code where reading events should
be deferred, but I think it is just as wrong to call eval or switch
windows in those places.
