The patch is a bit "ugly" (in the sense that it's a bit too ad-hoc), but
it's probably what it takes (tho maybe semantic-exit-on-input could be
replaced by while-no-input, which does not suffer from this problem,
but it's not a simple replacement).

But the main problem I see is that you already have a few "trivial"
patches installed, so this is summing up to something non-trivial which
requires copyright paperwork.

If that's OK with you, then, please fill the form below and send it to
the FSF as instructed, so they can send you the relevant paperwork.
