I realize I never did implement this -- can I get some opinions on which
of these approaches to follow?  So far my reasoning is that the
execute-kbd-macro path is simpler and cleaner, but the kill-functions path
is more transparent (as well as having the trivial advantage that it would
remain possible to permanently affect the interprogram-*-functions
variables from a keyboard macro).
