it still doesn't work. please, please, please test this before you
upload it again. the new syslog completely froze my system (mail
wasn't going out, etc) i couldn't even su to root. on reboot it just
hang there. i had to go into single user and disable syslog (chmod -x
/etc/init.d/sysklogd) before i could do anything. thanks.

I did test it.  Contrary to -27 this time I directly tested it on
my log host which makes heavy use of syslog due to a lot of pop3,
news and smtp activities. (and not on the compile host).

However currently -29 stops syslog'ing at all.  I'm about to cry and
quit this stuff.

Would you like to test a pre-release of -30?  Again, on my server
it runs as expected.  This release contains a patch against the
former version.

 well, i can't send any mail out, and there is nothing logged to
 syslog. i can't su either. looks like nothing changed.

I introduced a severe bug.  Could you try the next prelimnary version
and tell me if it works for you?

Works for me.  I was getting hangs opening /dev/log before (bind, ppp,
etc) and now I'm not.  Oh, and I'm running 2.0.35.
