We hit this problem a few days ago on a server with RHEL 5 +
PostgreSQL 8.4 + syslog. It made it quite difficult to work on the
slow queries paralyzing the server as several of them had truncated
lines in the middle of them.

Any chance to have this fix backported to 8.4 and 9.0 as this is a
regression introduced in 8.4?

Thanks for your feedback.
