1024 limit on syslogappender isn't good for syslog-ng

In version 1.2.15, the max length was changed to 1024 per the syslog spec,
but we use syslog-ng (as I think many do to avoid some shortcomings of
syslog). So we got truncated messages. Rolling back to 14 fixed this.

Could there be a flag added to disable this limit in a future revision? Or
perhaps there is a way and I'm not finding it.
