Re: signalling errors in redisplay

How about:

If Fsignal detects we're inside redisplay, it pushes the signal
onto a list of "pending redisplay errors".  At the end of redisplay,
we check the list and throw the corresponding signals.

Of course, this has several problems:
- The code might be seriously confused if Fsignal returns normally.
- I have no idea what it means to throw several signals.
- Plus all the problems that my feeble mind can't even imagine because
  of its lack of understanding of how the redisplay code really works.
