Bug description:
package version: syslog-ng-3.0.1-14.x86_64

this is very annoying as non functional syslogd prevents you connecting to your system via ssh or use sudo.

syslog itself with strace:
# lsp syslog-ng
USER       PID  PGRP                  STARTED TT          VSZ   RSS STAT CMD
root      8814  8813 Thu May 14 02:47:20 2009 ?         36532    88 S    supervising syslog-ng
