How to avoid questions asked in the echo area to be overridden by messag

Hello,

In my Emacs 24 (note that I'm quite sure it has nothing to do with the version
of Emacs), there are some questions I never see because they're immediately
overridden by other messages.

Two examples:

- when `vc-command-messages' is set to `t',
  "Running svn --non-interactive diff Work.org...OK = 0"
  hides the question "Resume clock (Organize work) (y or n)"

- "Scanning document..." (dunno who's emitting it)
  is in front of Emacs Helm question for entering a search "pattern:"

When I say "in front", I mean that the question appears for a subsecond, but
immediately disappears as a new message (possibly generated before?[1]) comes on
the "stack".

Best regards,
  Seb

Footnotes:

[1] I have that impression when reading the *Messages* buffer. The VC info is
chronologically before Org's question to resume clocking on a task.
