Mark Andrews also commented on this:

This 80-character line had no wrap, so all of the final characters in
this message [which might have been "proceeding anyway"] are typed on
top of each other. This unreadable part tells you why it proceeded,
anyway. ;-)
In the same line, the name to which it refers have the first three
letters 'n', 'f', 'f', and the next two are '\008', which is control-H.
[Sorry, I must have mistyped "nff" as "bff".] This is not a legal host
name.
