Well, even if 1 line is printed instead of the full stacktrace, if
left long enough the harddisk will still fill up. Probably a bit
slowly, but eventually the disk will be filled up. The problem is the
user would only notice this when there is a severe lack of space.

Something is better than nothing, so I checked in (svn trunk r4397)
support for the above, namely if a large message is repeated then only
the first line is printed and marked "(Repeated)".
