I've noticed it too.  Happened on a sun3/50 running 3.5.  I haven't had
time to look for the problem yet -- just wanted to let you know that
you have company.  Incidentally, some experimentation yielded a message
only about 100 lines long that causes the error, so I'm not sure that
large size is the trigger.

Just in case any of y'all are wondering, mush reads these messages just
fine in curses and shell mode.
