Subject: 24.3.50; Emacs gets hung by find-file for //<TAB>
Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2013 08:51:41 +0900

When performing find-file, Emacs gets hung if I mistyped as:

Find file: // and <TAB>

As it might be because C-g doesn't break an inf-loop on Cygwin
Emacs (bug#14553), there seems to be no way to get out of it
except for killing the Emacs process.  For a wonder, Emacs does
not eat CPU so much at that time.
