Hi,
 
In module 173 of "TeX: The Program", it states that the recursion of 'short_display' is "never more than one level deep". It should probably read "more than two levels deep" since calling it on an hlist containing a discretionary node containing a ligature will cause two recursive calls to 'short_display'.

Best,
Tyge
