* cus-edit.el (custom-save-variables): When a custom value is over 60
characters long, insert it using indent-pp-sexp so that the value is
more legible through being split over multiple lines. This is
particularly useful when `custom-file' is tracked by a version control
system, since then the diffs become much more manageable.
