I just noticed that this fix in `universal-coding-system-argument'
causes another bug.  It fails with the key sequence `C-x RET c RET RET'
that signals an error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument characterp return)
  char-equal(return 7)
  universal-coding-system-argument(utf-8-unix)
  call-interactively(universal-coding-system-argument nil nil)

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) of 2009-01-06
