Public bug reported:

My rsyslog configuration listens on TCP port 514 and is bound to an
address on tun0 (created by an openvpn server daemon):

  module(load="imtcp")
  input(type="imtcp" port="514" address="10.8.9.1")

This machine rebooted (due to unattended upgrades) overnight and when it
came back up, rsyslog was not listening on the port. The logs show:

  Oct 24 03:00:16 foo rsyslogd-2077: Could not create tcp listener,
ignoring port 514 bind-address 10.8.9.1. [v8.16.0 try
http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2077 ]

A restart of rsyslogd was required to address the issue. I'm curious
what the right solution to this problem would be, as the bind interface
is configuration-dependent.
