We already have a facility for this, see 'no-record' in the
description of unread-command-events in the ELisp manual.  Please see
if you can use that instead.

And if you must have a variable, I'd prefer to un-obsolete
inhibit--record-char, which was once used for this purpose, but no
longer is, and restore the code in keyboard.c which supported it.

Thanks.
