An out-of-process implementation for the plugins would solve all such issues. But that takes time... A work-around may be to run two rsyslogd processes concurrently. Definitely not a mainstream or default config, but could be done. Also, I wonder if the kernel log works on BSD (not tested), in which case the experimental code would work there without any bad side effects (better phrased: with side-effects yet to be seen, as I said I did so far not invest any serious time in testing).
