Follow-up Comment #1:

Thanks for the report.  It seems you hit a corner case.  When the read buffer
is filled up, msgfilter.c:prepare_read tries to increase the size by 1.5 times
larger than the previous size:


if (l->length == l->allocated)
  {
    l->allocated = l->allocated + (l->allocated >> 1);
    l->result = (char *) xrealloc (l->result, l->allocated);
  }


However, if the original l->allocated is 1, the size doesn't change.

I've pushed a fix:
