Well, at least there's this in redisplay_internal (I think you wrote
it):

  /* I don't think this happens but let's be paranoid.  */
  if (redisplaying_p) <=================================
    return;

So perhaps the right thing to do would be to replace the comment with
one saying that process_pending_signals can potentially cause redisplay
to be called within itself.
