Actually, it looks like it's not so much an issue with the max length for the URL, as it is for *any* line in bb-hosts. I started writing an extension script to do the content checking, and even that is getting the URL truncated. The problem appears that everything past 464 characters from the "#" in the bb-hosts file for any host is discarded.
It shouldn't do that, and I cannot trigger this with a simple test. Could you send me (off-list) the bb-hosts file you're using ?
Just an update for the list...
With the debugging tool Henrik mentioned, the URL that is apparently getting truncated everywhere else is NOT truncated with the tool. I'm currently writing a URL content check extension script to both get around the truncation issue I'm having, as well as adding some content check features Hobbit doesn't have out-of-the-box, so ultimately it's not a big deal for me. However, I will work with Henrik to see if we can figure out where this issue is coming from.
