The submitters have misunderstood the option "-f" of logger.
I recommend the closing of this bug. Explanation follows:

The option "-f" tells logger to fetch the message from a file
instead of standard input or trailing line text:

 $ echo -e "First line\nSecond line."  | logger -p user.info -t testing

or equivalently

 $ echo -e "First line\nSecond line." > /tmp/test.log
 $ logger -p user.info -t testing -f /tmp/test.log
