I asked about that one because it's one of the longer new keywords 
in the superpatch.  Obviously, it's not one of mine.  I don't change
other people's keywords for compatibility's sake, unless there's a
conflict (the #macro stuff from the iso patch, for example.)

Possible but ugly, since the tokenizer splits things on spaces.  Even if
you did make it work with the current tokenizer (and you could, I think)
you'd get weird error messages if you said something like "max trace 10" 
instead of "max trace level 10"  All in all, probably not a good thing.
