Is "I don't care" a valid option? I think the setting the maximum
message size is up to the administrator. If we need to define a minimum
to be supported by all implementations, fine. Otherwise the maximum size
depends greatly on the environment where syslog is deployed.

As I see the maximum size needs to be specified only if we are to define
a data type that represents the size of the message, but I can't see
anything like this. (like defining 4 decimal digits, or 32 bit unsigned
integer)
