Mentioning this in the `truncate-lines' doc would be fine...

... but this seems like overkill to me.  I don't think anybody would
actually imagine that these two things could be mixed -- the original
bug report was just about somebody who had both thing set accidentally,
and then wondering what's going on.  (And the change to
toggle-truncate-lines I pushed should make that accident less likely to
occur.)
