Well your right about it being syslogd doing it's thing and "syslogd -m 0"
should disable it (it did for me).
There's two things that I would check, they are both really simple things,
but easy to mess up or forget to do.
1 - are you sure you put "-m 0" and not "-m o" or "-m O" (don't laugh,
I've done it :()
2 - did you remember to re-start syslog
