I was on the verge of suggesting as much.. :)
The way I understand it, klogd exists to take the kernel's logs (printk
function in the kernel) and shovel them off to syslog for later thought. I
think you'll find you had nothing of type kernel.* coming through to
syslog.
Out of interest, I had problems after dist-upgrading from stable+secure to
testing, using syslog-ng. In the end I nuked both sysklogd and syslog-ng
(which took long enough, various things trampling on each other in
/etc/init.d), rebuild sysklogd from source and reverted back to it from
-ng. Ho hum. Beware :8)
