Sorry, that was my employer's network nanny. From my home ISP it worked just 
fine.

(echo-alphabet)
"a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z"

(let ((print-length 8))
  (echo-alphabet))
"a b c d e f g h ..."

(let ((print-length 12))
  (echo-alphabet))
"a b c d e f g h i j k l ..."

(let ((eval-expression-print-length 12))
  (echo-alphabet))
"a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z"

I haven't experienced any indeterminacy, though.
