According to your log, crash collection has exceeded the limit you set on disk space useage. On 'Your Account' page, under General Settings, you have disk space limits you can set. What are they?
It looks like you have set a limit (or the default?) of .1Gb or 100,000,000 bytes.
The scheduler doesn't seem to have done anything wrong, just obeyed the limits given it.

As you say this has happened twice, on different versions, you may have unearthed a bug here.
The log certainly says it failed because 103,572,861 is greater than 100,000,000
We have to assume that these figures are bytes.

This message seems to be issued by, or on behalf of, 'Crash Collection' (which I know nothing about) so I guess the issue lies there. If they have a message board I suggest you post this problem there.
