Is there a particular reason why SWANK:*SLDB-PRINTER-BINDINGS* binds *PRINT-LINES* to 10 instead of NIL?

Some limit seems reasonable to stop the debugger from producing megabytes of output just for the error message. Think of printing the contents of a bitvector. 10 is more or less arbitrary. But what is the maximum length of good error message? Helmut.
