I hoped that was only me.  :-)  I tried following the logic from Ferror
to Fsignal to signal_or_quit, but it wasn't at all obvious to me where
that's actually displaying the message.

I instrumented set_message, and that's called by Fsignal at some point,
but even with Vset_message_function set properly, the error message
still ends up in the echo area...
