It can't, and that's not what I meant.

I think I found the problem: the call to Fformat eventually calls
print_object, which calls QUIT, which resets quit-flag.

So you need to change the beginning of read_char like this:

  ptrdiff_t count = SPECPDL_INDEX ();
  specbind (Qinhibit_quit, Qt);
  AUTO_STRING (format, "%S");
  printf ("record_char: %s\n", SSDATA (CALLN (Fformat, format, c)));
  unbind_to (count, Qnil);
