I really wonder why rconsole enforces 1024 bytes restriction on message length while syslog no longer enforces this. There was a restriction on syslog message length introduced in RFC 3164(2001), but it was canceled in RFC 5424(2009). AFAIK, it is more transport-related restriction than syslog restriction itself.
It would be good if this get fixed since it is really frustrating to get such error messages while your syslog really support bigger logs.
