> Can somebody please advise me about the right course of action in this case? Should I figure out a way to load Vinput_decode_map when new character arrives and `interrupted_kboard != current_kboard`? Or should I look into why read_char() does not return a buffer the second time?

The latter, I think.  But I'm far from being an expert on this, so
caveat emptor.

Thanks for looking into this tricky problem.
