Now the code is as below:

If the optional argument LIMIT is a number,
it means chase no more than that many links and then stop."
 (let (tem (newname filename)
            (count 0)
            (max (max limit 100)))

Wild guess: Richard meant (or limit 100) instead of (max limit 100).


That seems like an awfully conservative default.  How about bumping it up to
1024?
