Thanks, but I don't think I understand the relation between what you
say above (and in the comments in your patch below) and the code
change you propose:

Where's save-excursion and point moving to which you allude here?

More importantly, why is it a good idea to stop running timers during
this accept-process-output call and ignore output from other
subprocesses?
