So this

   READ_KBD is:
     0 to ignore keyboard input, or
     1 to return when input is available, or
    -1 meaning caller will actually read the input, so don't throw to
       the quit handler

implies that if read_kbd is zero then we should be able to quit?

If that's the case then we need some special handling in nsterm.m for
C-g, I suppose.

Having dug around in other terms I assume this means setting
Vquit_flag? So in the keyDown method we should identify C-g and set
Vquit_flag...?
