Do kernel configs or dmesg -v output count as log files too?  These can
easily exceed 20 KB, since a non-verbose dmesg output is almost 15 KB in
a recent -CURRENT:

# dmesg | wc /dev/stdin /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC
      81     569    3951 /dev/stdin
     282    1592   10250 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC
     363    2161   14201 total
