I've got this fixup patch for this, below.

Mainly this fixes `ert' interactive spec, where there was a leftover
second argument, nil.

However I'm not quite sure in this docstring fix:

-mode.  A value of nil will short-circuit this mechanism; line
-lengths will be completely determined by `ert-batch-line-length'
-and `ert-batch-line-level'.  Any other value will be temporarily

The docstring for backtrace-line-length says: "If set to nil or zero,
backtrace mode will not abbreviate the forms it prints."  So the above
sentence, which I removed, was indeed not true?  (a quick look over
its usages confirmed that to me, but I'd like someone else to check)

Thanks.
