A pacemaker suddenly quitting is no more likely to happen than you are to be struck by lightening.
Stay away

My book says to stay away from them altogether, no safe distance is specified. I can tell you from experience that the welder, the electrode and even the cables produce huge amounts of electro-magnetic energy but I guess you know that. I used to do alot of welding and remember seeing metal particles arranged on the floor around the cables in a pattern that indicated magnetic fields. Be careful.
