Better bug link:

Turns out this is ultimately a journald bug (and explains why journalctl
has been busted for me lately). But still, if you're hit by it, you're
going to want to nerf rsyslogd ASAP, because until you do, it will
spam /var/log/messages until your disk is full. Mine had reached 8GB by
the time I noticed. Some other poor bugger's got to 30GB.
