No.  That does _not_ answer the bug report, which also stated that hard-coding
100 as the number of keys printed is not right.  You are trivializing the bug.

Please increase the default value of this limit and make it a user option - or
at least a defvar.

I would very much like to see that 100 be increased a great deal (e.g. 1000),
and preferably made an option. This has been requested before, but nothing has
come of it.

Gentlemen, C-h l runs the command view-lossage.
Back when Stallman was young, this worked fine. But nowadays that
buffer won't often fit in a window, so please add a (point-max)
somewhere in it, as we are only interested in the _final_ strokes.
Also how quaint hardwiring 100...
