But it can't pass through the INPUT_BLOCKED_P check at the beginning
of Feval because it is inside BLOCK_INPUT/UNBLOCK_INPUT in
x_set_name_internal.

The default optimization flag "-O2" sometimes reports wrong line
numbers.  I tried with a reproducible "eval while blocking input"
abort (*1) and it reported different line numbers, 2000 and 2150, for
"CFLAGS=-g" and "CFLAGS=-g -O2", respectively.
