There is no way I know of currently, but we can certainly add one.
Perhaps another special variable *break-prompt*?  We have to be a bit
careful as we actually have two break-levels -- the one in clcs/
overwrites the function to include ansi restarts.  In fact, it is on
my todo list to track down some conflict here which makes backtraces
much slower in the ansi build in cvs, and even possibly omits relevant
stack frames in the output.

Take care,
