What are the total lengths of the log entries in which you see the
failure? (The "length" here includes all the lines belonging to a
single logical entry, eg, ERROR, DETAIL, HINT.)
I believe that this shouldn't be happening except in the case in which
the entry-interpolated-into exceeds PIPE_BUF bytes. I'm not entirely
sure what PIPE_BUF is on Linux machines, but IIRC the Posix spec says it
has to be at least 512, and on older Unix kernels it tends to be 8K.
