[cmucl-help] maximum dynamic-space-size

[Matt Kaufmann]

Thanks for the reply.  I like the idea of "0" meaning "max"; I'll
probably take advantage of that if you make that change.  In the
meantime, it's good to know that there isn't any other way to figure
out the max besides parsing it out of that error message.

Thanks again,
Matt
