Thanks.  I think the patch wasn't quite right and was overly
complicated: `undo` is already responsible for dealing with the
freshness of `pending-undo-list`.  So I think the better patch is the
one below.

Eli, is the patch below OK for `emacs-27`?

[ BTW, I accidentally installed the previous patch on `master`, and I'm
  waiting for "the right solution" to clean up.  ]
