It seems to be some timing involved.  If I press C-g, Emacs says Quit in the 
minibuffer, but the cursor stays put.  If I press C-g after waiting a second 
or two, Emacs says Quit in the minibuffer, but the cursor still does not leave 
the minibuffer.  I can press as many C-g I want with the cursor in the 
minibuffer if I do it slowly (i.e. wait till the Quit text is replaced with M-x).
I have to press C-g twice close after each other to make the cursor leave the 
minibuffer (before Quit goes away).
