Sorry to do this, but I've just run into the same problem while doing a
dist-upgrade from wheezy to jessie.
After doing a reboot:
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl restart syslog.service
Failed to restart syslog.service: Unit syslog.service failed to load: No
such file or directory.
# systemctl disable rsyslog

Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service to
/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service.
[Please note: This symlink was missing before.]

I didn't had the time to debug this further yet, but I suspect, that
during dist-upgrade, the symlink isn't created correctly / at all.
Thats all for the moment,
