Wrong length / buffer overlow by the syslog syscall

Hi, I was debugging a segfault in the 'dmesg' utility that I finally traced to the syslog syscall overflowing the buffer. I'm under a 3.6.8 kernel and it has commit e3756477aec028427fec767957c0d4b6cfb87208 present which apparently fixed a similar issue, but I still have some occurence. strace
