It seems to hit the same abort, though.

Yes that was a silly idea. My bad.

That's strange but after all the same bug should hit again when we do
if (BUFFERP (old_buffer))
w->buffer = old_buffer;
in `vertical-motion' without restoring w->pointm. Apparently someone
decided that doing a thing like
"w->buffer = ..."
without further caution is a crime. So we'd at least have to save the
window point of old_buffer together with old_buffer and restore it when
we restore the old buffer. All this is completely fragile because I
don't have the slightest idea what `vertical-motion' is allowed to do in
between and how it is interrupted by C-g.
