If the client cache the first occurrence and send both this occurrence and
the "last.." message together specifing that this two lines must be logged
attached it may work but require some protocol enhancement. Without this
trick is still possible to search the previous line of the host but with
a lot of clients/logs it's a bit uncomfortable.
I think that this isn't an issue that can justify a protocol enhancement.
