My only request here is that it saves at least a years worth of updates
by default.  If something breaks on my system and I don't notice it for
a few months, I can't tell if an update broke it or not.

I have a 828Kb pacman.log from a 5 year old install.  Granted I don't
-Syu as often as I should, but it still seems manageable at many times
that on modern hardware.
