That answers the first and third question. What about the second?
Sure it is safe--that's what immediate_quit will do in the signal handler.
then try to interrupt the search with C-g. In my case at least it
doesn't work. Maybe it's because immediate_quit doesn't work, or maybe it's
because immediate_quit is not used in this case, but in any case I find this
behavior to be a problem.
Is the immediate_quit mechanism working at all
in your copy?
