    It  is  commented  out  by default (#ifdef QUERY_LIMIT) and I
    recommend NOT to enable it.

    The implementation  of  SET  QUERY_LIMIT  hat  unwanted  side
    effects. If during the execution of such a query functions or
    triggers get  invoked,  the  query  limit  also  affects  the
    execution  of  their  queries.  That could damage triggers or
    give unpredictable results on functions.

    I'll ensure that the SET QUERY_LIMIT code will be removed  in
    v6.5.
