Oh. Well, I said: "could". :o)

Ah, I didn't want to do that, as it is not reversible. I rather thought
of adding additional files with a .nogecos suffix or something.

That will not be sufficient, as you will also have to remove some angel
brackets at least. (s/CALLER_NAME <CALLER@???>/CALLER@???/)
Don't forget here you're using different domains. (test.ex,
myhost.test.ex, myhost.ex)
In logfiles there are also CALLER_NAMEs after non-whitespace characters,
i.e.: "name=CALLER_NAME" and "=> >CALLER_NAME"...
