  Is there any good argument for not allowing control-g to abort out of
  the "Save buffer. . .(y or n)" state?  I usually get to that state by
  mistyping Control-X Control-F, and I too find it nerve racking to
  thread my way back out through two yes/no questions that require
  thinking to answer correctly.

I fixed this long ago (try running /mit/emacs/emacs on a Vax).  It
just hasn't made it into most of the releases yet.
