 In 5c596cdbc086698c52 I added an XXXX comment to rate_limit_log.

 When we say "100 messages suppressed in the last 3600 seconds", we're not
 being accurate.  Those messages were suppressed over a period of time at
 the start of which the last message of this type was logged, and ending
 some time before the present... but they could have occurred days ago, or
 all 1 second ago.
