The length of 1097 is just 96.  There are several other messages in
the stram that long, and many a lot longer.  Some up to almost 500.

So we need a generic solution.

I see this problem on Gentoo unstable, and also on RasPi2 Wheezy.

What is different from your hosts to mine?  

My Gentoo unstable is on:
        bash 4.3.42
        python 2.7.11
        sed 4.2.2
        date 8.2.5

My RasPi2 Wheezy is on:
        bash 4.2.37
        python 2.7.3
        sed 4.2.1
        date 8.13

Your account on my RasPi2 is still there: pi2.rellim.com
