There is another problem I encountered with v. 18.59 that might be related
with the above (I am using Interactive's ISC 2.2.1 and have built emacs
without X support):

When I delete  a larger chunk of text from a file/text/buffer a couple
of keystrokes later  something  like "Buffer has shrunken a  lot.  Not
autosaving it..."  is displayed.

!!! Then EMACS waits forever (for Godot, I suppose) !!!

Anyone out there who knows how to make Godot come (well, I know that this
could be misunderstood) i.e. make EMACS continue its job?
