Actually, this doesn't work right; it causes C-c to always expect a
following key, so e.g. C-c C-c in a shell-mode buffer
(comint-interrupt-subjob) just waits for the next key, with
"C-c C-c -" displayed in the echo area.

[This sort of makes sense; C-c C-c t gets mapped to C-c M-Tab.]

So, if you want to globally remap something to M-Tab, you'll need to
use a single chord rather than a sequence.
