Problems like this might be due to a bug in read-char-no-hang in GCL.
(There have been other reports of this kind.)
Probably the first thing to do is to determine whether the bug is
peculiar to GCL. If it is a GCL bug, we should probably help them fix it.
Otherwise, of course, it is our own problem.
All the best,
Robert
