Hm. It's not difficult to fix in that continuing to hit <ESC .> picks
up where it left off, but it still beeps and inserts nothing.
I wonder if it would be preferable if it just skipped on to the next
(that is, usually, the preceding) last word?
It's possible the current misdocumented behavior dates all the way
back to 849f4068de (workers/16767) in 2002 and nobody noticed. I
can't find anything else obvious.
