On my Next (GNU Emacs 18.53.11 of Mon Jul 24 1989 on kodak
(berkeley-unix)), the following gives a Fatal Error (11):

	(while t (princ (read-char)))
	type in lots of ^\'s, with occasional pauses

This does not happen on my HP (GNU Emacs 18.55.1 of Tue Oct 31 1989 on
marat (hpux)), but on the other hand ^G does not work at all on it
(not only will it not interrupt a running program like (while t), it
won't interrupt a program taking input, like the above.
