Sure, it can, use my Multicast Netcat;

        http://people.heanet.ie/~colmmacc/mnc/

(version 1.3 is experimental and not working right now, avoid that, and

On the clients;

        CustomLog "|mnc group-id"

(you can use ordinary netcat for that part if you want). 

On the collector;

        mnc -l group-id > logfile

I know about the restart problem, but I don't know what you mean about
this forcing you to restart frontends, or how it affects the
architecture.  It wouldn't matter using the above commands.
