Bingo --- I think that's it. Something in your customizations must be
causing the run-with-timer call in blink-cursor-start to signal an
error. One possibility is an invalid `blink-cursor-interval'
variable. Since blink-cursor-start is run from an (idle) timer,
quitting is disabled.
The question is, why did this surface only with the latest Emacs
update?
