I've yet to run this code yet (will do so shortly), but I'd like to
mention that some other debugging I've been doing involving tricky
breakpoint commands is implying that, somehow, list_windows() is getting
called while list_windows() is still running.  I've got a breakpoint
at the beginning of the if clause in window_list() and one at the end,
and it looks like I'm seeing the first one get called twice without the
second getting called inbetween.
