Yes, it should, sort-of. It can't send the MARSHAL exception since it
can only do that once it has received the whole message, and the whole
point of the message size limit is to prevent it having to do that. What
it can do is send a MessageError message. I've fixed it in CVS so it
does that.

Duncan.
