    Yes, for those C-g is all we need.  But there are others, like `write'.

For `write', and maybe other exceptional places where at present C-g
won't ever exit the loop, I suggested that we make a single C-g exit,
but only if there has been no progress in the loop for 30 seconds.

Wouldn't that solve the problem?
