Comment (by markoheijnen):

 The problem here is that its most likely a plugin that does weird things.
 So even when the warnings come from a WordPress file that doesn't mean
 that WordPress is the cause. In this case {{{$wp_filter}}} is a global
 variable what everyone can change.

 I can understand the issue of a logfile of 11GB and that you can't change
 the installation of a customer. For now you can only warn the customer
 that you get a lot of errors from the installation. Even if we make it
 more robust you still need to wait a while till the fix would be in a
 public release. To be sure this is a WordPress 3.6.1 installation?
