There are few pairs of (Q|V)xxx variables where Qxxx looks like
a leftovers in favor of Vxxx counterparts. For example, (Q|V)inhibit_quit
and (Q|V)inhibit_point_motion_hooks - I don't see any real use of
Qxxx except DEFSYM and (dummy?) specbind for both. Are Qxxx really
leftovers which can be removed?

Qfoo is the C counterpart of 'foo
Vfoo is the C counterpart of foo
IOW it should always be the case that EQ (Fsymbol_value (Qfoo), Vfoo).
