window_list_1 is the object replace_buffer_in_windows(_safely) use to
find all windows displaying the buffer to kill and if only one of these
windows is missing in the list we get our initial problem back.  Just
that, as I mentioned earlier, the quit flag will probably have been
already processed by the preceding window_list call.
