When I'm using completion-at-point (and completion-in-region-mode more

around when I don't want it. *Completions* is supposed to go away during
the course of normal editing as the completions it contains become
obsolete, but sometimes it doesn't --- imagine moving back to the prompt
after completing a command in comint.
The following patch makes C-g in the regular command loop exit
completion-in-region-mode, getting rid of the *Completions* buffer. It
