following patches have been applied:

    http://people.debian.org/~roktas/elog-backport-patches/

I've created a new package and confirmed that it works:

    http://people.debian.org/~roktas/packages/elog_2.5.7+r1558-4+sarge1.dsc
    http://people.debian.org/~roktas/packages/elog_2.5.7+r1558-4+sarge1_i386.deb

Debdiff is attached and here is the new changelog for your convenience:
