Description
An exception is raised by log4cxx when a very large message is logged using the SyslogAppender/SyslogWriter (other appenders/writers appear to "work" perfectly with large messages).
The exception occurs if the message in question is too large to fit inside a UDP packet (the syslog protocol uses UDP).
It would be better to split big messages up before sending them over the syslog protocol as per this similar log4j issue/fix - https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42087 - rather than forcing log4cxx clients to restructure their program logic in order to avoid (or recover from) from this kind of rare logging exception.
