Done on the release branch.

I reverted those as well.

[Message part 3 (message/rfc822, inline)]

From: Eli Zaretskii <eliz <at> gnu.org>
To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org
Subject: 24.3.92; C-q does not echo itself and the following input
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2014 18:28:56 +0300

Steps to reproduce:

  emacs -Q
  C-q 7 7 7

Emacs should echo both C-q and the input you type afterwards, but it
doesn't.  This is a regression since Emacs 24.3.
