     [sftp-server.c]
     bz#1286 stop reading and processing commands when input or output buffer
     is nearly full, otherwise sftp-server would happily try to grow the
     input/output buffers past the maximum supported by the buffer API and
     promptly fatal()
     based on patch from Thue Janus Kristensen; feedback & ok dtucker@
