I had thought this limit had been abolished some time ago due to
better protection against abuse of recursive templates and the like,
but it looks like it's just been increased to 100 so that it's no
longer likely to be reached in practice.

As I'm sure you're bored of being told, I don't think 1.3.x is
"supported" any more, so an upgrade to 1.4 would be a way of getting
this fix and much more.

But anyway, the answer is that it's a constant called
'MAX_INCLUDE_REPEAT' defined at the top of includes/Parser.php.

Happy Hacking!
