Обсуждение: syslog: log line length?

I have most entries split over several lines:

Jun 29 19:56:40 db.xxx.xxx postgres[10640]: [5-1] DB=XXX U=XXX H=1.1.1.1 16854186.2190 idleLOG:  Verbindungsende:
Sitzungszeit:0:01:22.10 
Jun 29 19:56:40 db.xxx.xxx postgres[10640]: [5-2]  Benutzer=xxx Datenbank=xxxx Host=1.1.1.1 port=23640

Is it possible to tell postgres to split entries only after 200 chars, not already at about 80?
200 should fit most log lines into one entry.

Is this the wrong question for this list? Where should I post this?

Postgres does not split entries.  They are split by infelicities in the
underlying facilities used (pipes).  There's ongoing work to fix this
problem.  In the meantime, I think you could work around it by using
syslog instead of redirect_stderr.

This *is* syslog. Can I specify line length there?

This is one log entry (from a long query) split over 2374 lines:

And where could I configure to have english, not german, postgres logs?
