I've taken a look at reportbug and it looks like you are right. I also don't see a simple solution for this. In that case I suggest that we disable the option to include syslog, messages and partman in the bug report and just request those files from the submitter if we need them. We can then also request the submitter to gzip them. It also seems useful to add functionality to reportbug allowing a maintainer to specify attachments to be included (with compression optional or size dependent), although this should probably only be done after asking the user if that's OK. Post Etch I will think on an implementation for this and file a wishlist BR against reportbug. We can then possibly properly include attachments again post-etch.
