The context limit reached message has been simplified. When DISABLE_COMPACT is set, the message now says "Compaction is disabled." rather than suggesting /compact.

Evidence

Context limit message (search for "Context limit reached" and "Compaction is disabled.")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
