Christopher Bonhage updated COUCHDB-1651:
-----------------------------------------

    Attachment: resolve_spurious_rewrite_limit_errors.patch

I've created an embarrassingly simple patch for this issue which erases the couch_rewrite_count from the request's process dictionary after a response has been sent.

> Problem:
> The requests work as expected for some unknown period, then begin to respond with a 400 status and the "Exceeded rewrite recursion limit" error message. Changing the rewrites rules for both applications, including setting them to empty arrays, had no effect.
> The problem was solved by restarting the CouchDB service.
