    I think that is the case, there was a bug report on bug-gnu-emacs aut it 4
    days before the checkin,
    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2002-12/msg00062.ht:

That is enough evidence to convict anyone unless he works for Bush.

The question is whether to make y-or-n-p-with-timeout work correctly
or to declare it obsolete.  We could make it work using some other
timeout mechanism that can't run Lisp code.
