If we do that can we still cache the values in the syscache? My
impression from what you and TomD said was that it would be at least
more difficult. If it's possible I'm all in favor.

(Side note: ISTM there is a pretty good case to move the truncation code
from the lexer to the parser where it can be invoked according to
context. Maybe something to think about next cycle.).
