Could someone please take a look at this bug?

It is so simple to hit C-M-x when debugging and modifiying a function that has
`debug-on-entry'.  Doing that should (obviously) cancel opening the debugger on
entry.  This has always been the behavior in Emacs, and it should be a
no-brainer.

(I'm not saying that how to fix it is a no-brainer - just the fact that the sane
behavior should be restored.)

Thx.
