[xemacs-hg @ 2005-01-26 10:33:40 by ben] Fix some race conditions in redisplay/signal redisplay.c, redisplay.h, signal.c: Move backtraces to internals manual. Fix some race conditions leading to crashes due to incomplete protection of critical sections. In signal.c, be more aggressive in catching incomplete critical section protection -- we cannot even check for QUIT, *EVER*, in a critical section.

-- ben-separate-stderr-improved-error-trapping

this is an old workspace, very close to being done, containing

- subprocess stderr output can be read separately; needed to fully
  implement call-process with asynch. subprocesses.

- huge improvements to the internal error-trapping routines (i.e. the
  routines that call Lisp code and trap errors); Lisp code can now be
  called from within redisplay.

- cleanup and simplification of C-g handling; some things work now
  that never used to.

- see the ChangeLogs in the workspace.
