Is there a chance you were using the Unix::Syslog module on the old system, but are now using Sys::Syslog? Unix::Syslog only understands the numeric syslog codes, so convert_log_facility_to_number() call does the conversion in the if ($Features{"Unix::Syslog"}) codepath. It assumes that any log level it doesn't understand should be treated as '0'. That code isn't applicable if you use Sys::Syslog, as it uses the textual descriptions directly and will error if it sees one it doesn't understand.

But I wonder why it's working on the 2.44 system, and fails on the 2.49? Ah, well - sometime when I get really bored, I'll find out. In the meantime, that fixed it.
