RETURN_MASK_ALL is almost never a good idea.  Quit will now not quit
all the way back to a prompt.  Is that really what we want either?

For instance, a program running in a while (1) loop with a breakpoint
set in it, and the breakpoint has a command that produces output, like
backtrace.  Quit will now resume the program and generate another
backtrace, I think.
