I can't remember where, but I know that I *did* hear/read sometime in the
very near past about something being buggy about syslogd--don't know if it
was a version problem or an install problem (or whatever else...)

Have you tried stopping syslog and doing an    rpm -Uvh
or maybe an     rpm -i --replacepkgs   on the syslogd rpm? I don't see an
update for it, so I don't think the version itself is buggy, but maybe
something happened at some point with your install of the daemon.
