You should probably apply some kind of a content transformation to transform this payload into a XML payload with multiple "text" elements (one per each syslog message). But I'm not sure whether traditional techniques like XSLT and XQuery support that kind of transformations. After all you're trying to transform based on XML text and not the XML nodes. That's almost always very difficult.
IMO you're better off writing a custom mediator to do this transformation. Then you can use the iterate mediator to split the message into its constituents and send to the JMS queue. An even more elegant solution would be to write a custom message builder that knows how to parse the incoming batch requests and construct a proper XML payload out of it.
