Subject: [PATCH] Blandyism #48

As for most Blandyisms dating back to early 90s, the fastidious
maintenance of the waiting_for_input flag likely yields no
discernible difference at the cost of FUD.

* src/thread.c (post_acquire_global_lock):
Clear thread's "waiting_for_input" flag before signalling.

That's a non-starter, not unless you explain why this is not needed
for threads, because it attempts to artificially remove a restriction
without any analysis or rationale.  Why is a non-main thread waiting
for input different from the main thread waiting for input?

I've installed a fix on the emacs-28 branch, please test.

This was almost a year ago, so I'm assuming from Dick's silence that the
fix worked, and I'm closing this bug report.

If this is a mistake, please respond to the debbugs address and we'll
reopen.
