[tex-k] error_line etc.

The current texmf.cnf of TL has these lines:
------------------------
% It's probably inadvisable to change these. At any rate, we must have:
% 45 < error_line      < 255;
% 30 < half_error_line < error_line - 15;
% 60 <= max_print_line;
% These apply to TeX, Metafont, and MetaPost.
error_line = 79
half_error_line = 50
max_print_line = 79
------------------------
There's at least one documentation error, as max_print_line obviously
can be >60. But what are the limits for TL2009?

Best
