David, Single quotes are right in the scripting engine (double quotes are reserved for future use - they shall provide the capability to extend macros, e.g. $A="BC" => '$A' is the string "$A", while "$A" is supposed to be the string "BC").
I don't have an idea what may be wrong, but running rsyslog in debug mode will most probably pinpoint it.
