Thanks Rainer, I haven't had a chance to build rsyslog against RHEL's gnutls but I'll give it a try tomorrow and report back.
In regards to your side note, I actually just used the rsyslog spec file from the fedora project: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/rsyslog/ In that CVS repo there's the spec file and a couple of other pieces which makes rsyslog fit into a RHEL/Fedora/CentOS box in the Red Hat way of doing things. I believe the fedora project are using that spec file for FC10 and FC11 but I've had no issues with it on RHEL5/CentOS5.

The 2.0.0 was a conservative choice we made when adding the check logic. I don't have a version with an older release to test, but I think I initially developed it with 1.something. So if you can confirm that the compile/link successes with 1.4.1, I'll happily change the check condition. As a side-note, do you have the RPMs available publically? Or would like to contribute them? A lot of folks have recently asked for RHEL RPMs...
