I don't understand what is meant by the variable getting "set".  Its
default value is t, and has been since it was first introduced in
b49df39d (1999-09-14 "(eval-expression-print-level): New variable....").

It was added to the manual in 66249842 (2011-07-15 "(Using Debugger):
Mention @code{eval-expression-debug-on-error}") which says it fixes this
bug, so I'm closing it now.
