> Prior to Emacs 23, a user can hit `C-RET' after `C-u' and while
> `[prefix (4)]' is displayed, and the `sit-for' is interrupted and

I can't reproduce exactly your test case because I don't know what code
is run by your C-u (and because I'm on GNU/Linux, ...), but at least
when I start "emacs23 -Q" and do C-x C-f TAB TAB, the first tab outputs
a minibuffer-message but the second TAB is executed immediately
(interrupts the minibuffer-message).  So I don't see that problematic
behavior you're seeing.

Can you check whether my test case works for you as well?
