Comment (by pramsey):

 Pretty sure I see the issue, which I am surprised never showed up before?
 20 years in? But the parser is returning a error location of 1131025 when
 the WKT input is only 1047553 bytes long. This rather screws up the logic
 in lwmessage_truncate, I think. I will have to see if I can generate this
 organically on smaller inputs. One task is just to make lwmessage_truncate
 more robust. Another is to explore why the error location is 10% too
 large.
