Thanks.  I've just encountered a situation that I'd like to use
code conversion, which may call Feval, inside XTread_socket.
That is related to a callback function for the clipboard, and it
should complete code conversion before it returns.  Thus passing
events to Lisp does not work here.

Is GC the only reason to avoid Feval inside XTread_socket?  If
so, is it possible to use code conversion together with
inhibit_garbage_collection?
