WISHLIST: 
  allow sshd to work when /var is full.

this is critical because of there is no any barrier to allow user to log in and 
do something (empty /var from dust). but now this does not work because of log 
message is tryed to be writed to 'log'.... but /var is full and loggining is 
stale (((

this problem is typical for 'su' also.
when you logged in and try to 'su' when /var/ is full  -- you are in stale.

# df -h
/dev/ad1s1d    989M    989M    -79M   109%    /var

$ su
Password:
...... bla bla bla, I am stale.....
>How-To-Repeat:
fill /var/ and try to login through ssh
>Fix:
write login message to file, when user is logged already.
