Either code or doc must change (with 'version changed' note). Doc: "The default is 1000. When set to 0 or less, all traceback information is suppressed and only the exception type and value are printed."

Christian's patch: "values <= 0 are replaced with a default value to avoid infinite recursion and other issues." Default is 1000.

I do not see the logic of changing 'nothing' to 'everything'. I am puzzled how printing nothing causes infinite recursion.
