[mythtv] LOG line length limit

[Klaas de Waal]

Hi,

There is a hard-coded line length limit of about 2kbytes for the LOG
messages.
This is most likely the reason why a lot of the output of the mythtv-setup
channel scanner, notably the channel lists, are written directly to stdout
instead of via the LOG system.
The disadvantage of this is that the output sometimes becomes a mess and
that the stdout messages come before the LOG messages that were created
earlier.

To fix this I would like to write all output with LOG messages but with
this I have hit the length limit.

Are there good reasons for the line limit size or is it feasible to replace
the fixed message buffer of 2kbyte with something dynamically allocated?

Thanks,
Klaas.
