In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.3.96.1040327092108.246A-100000@acm.acm> (message from Alan Mackenzie on Sat, 27 Mar 2004 09:24:17 +0000 (GMT))

    At Emacs 21.3 on a Linux tty, something in Emacs's low-level keyboard
    handling appears to be mangling the key event C-M-g, silently discarding
    the "M-", leaving C-g.

It is converting C-M-g into ESC C-g, but C-g in Emacs is the quit
character.  There is nothing Emacs can do about this.
