That's not true. I had scenes with max_trace_level 1000 which also reached
this level. And I just did a test with two facing mirrors: max_trace_level
5000 was reached.. I do not think the linux version of POV-Ray ever had a
crash because of that. So I see no point in limiting max_trace_level in all
POV-Ray version just beacuse some crappy OS can't handle it.
