Right you are, but this raises an issue with the Windows port (where I
originally checked this): it does NOT ask for permission.
[Time passes...] Ah, I see, it's probably because
input_from_terminal_p returns zero on Windows. Is this fixable?
Anyway, I think we should modify the prompt to say this:
Reinitialize source path to default? (y or n)
Does anyone disagree?
