Just one more clarifying comment: the cause was really in a line like "514 UDP SYSLOGT1" in the "PORT" section of TCPIP's profile. Removing the leading "1" (SYSLOGT is the procedure name) made it work. So that leading "1" was the cause. This is probably a reminiscence when SYSLOG used to fork, if it used to.
