I see: your list has 50 entries.
And indeed the C code says:
[...]
else if (STRINGP (car) || CONSP (car))
{
register int limit = 50;
/* Limit is to protect against circular lists. */
[...]
so it looks like you bumped into a hard-coded limit.
I've just installed the patch below which should move the hard limit far
enough for now.
