If you have a loop in a bind-macro (such as bind-macro r 'replysender -b ...')
mush crashes and dumps core when you try to activate.  Though loops
are wrong, this behavior is not very nice.

Wouldn't it be nice to have some control over the maximum depth of
nesting in bind-macro activation, so that in such cases an inteligent
warning will result, rather than an ugly crash?
