[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Recipe from 'emacs -Q':

1. Save the test-data attachment to a file.

[test-data (text/plain, attachment)]
[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]
2. Evaluate the following defun:

(defun do-test ()
  (while (re-search-forward "bug#[[:digit:]]+:" nil t)
    (search-backward "(\"bug")
    (let (end (start (point)))
      (forward-sexp)
      (setq end (point))
      (query-replace-regexp "\\(\"bug#[[:digit:]]+:\\).*\"" "\\1\""
			    nil start end))))

3. Visit the test data file.  With point at the start of the buffer, run
the do-test function, and press space a couple times.  Now press C-g.

Expected behavior:

  The do-test function stops executing, and point is left at the same
  position where you pressed C-g.  (This is the behavior I see with
  Emacs 30 and with a build derived from Emacs master 648453c04d9.)

Observed behavior:

  point progresses through the remaining sexps, without giving you any
  query-replace prompt.  When do-test has finished, point is now after
  '"bug#78900:"'.

The git hash reported below by 'report-emacs-bug' includes a few Lisp
changes that I believe are unrelated to the issue, and which are
unchanged from the Emacs master build that works as expected.  The
corresponding git hash from master (for the buggy build) is a002ca79ee7.
