Hi, I think a sane approach would be to note down the directives you are using un v5 and then comparing them with v7 to see how they differ, in behavior and documentation. If your syslog stuff is maintained/supported/used by others, probably educate them too. Keep the working v5 config file handy so that you can revert to v5, if things don't work as expected with v7 and you need to debug.
Particular use case testing is the best method that I can think of.
