Here is a quote from info node `(elisp) Variables with Restricted
Values':
----------------------------------------------------------------------
     (setq undo-limit 1000.0)
     error→ Wrong type argument: integerp, 1000.0
----------------------------------------------------------------------
However `(setq undo-limit 1000.0)' actually results in
    wrong-type-argument numberp 1000.0
, not "integerp" error.

I think that it should be "integerp", as described in elisp reference.

Bye,
Ikumi Keita
