Insufficient EventLog buffer_size causes log file to grow rapidly and endlessly

Description

When using the latest RC, 0.3.6-RCX-x64, (did also happen with previous RCs) you'll run into a major issue if the buffer_size of the EventLog? module doesn't suffice. The message that signals this error (together with the recommended value for buffer_size) is written into the log file endlessly (as far as I can tell), which causes your log file to grow rapidly (~100 MB per Minute). If NSCP is installed on the system partition that means that eventually Windows will refuse to work since there's no free space left on its partition.
