These samples are enough, no need to disclose more. Single lines are 
sufficient, as long as they can repro the problem :)

Before disclosing enough data I have to ask for permission. I can tell
you that the last hop in this relay chain is using rsyslog v3, and that
the format I got (tcpdump dixit) for these messages is always like this:

<38>Mar 27 19:06:53 source_server sshd(pam_unix)[12750]: session opened
for user foo by (uid=0)

And what gets actually logged for that is:

2009-03-27T19:06:53+01:00 last_hop_server source_server
sshd(pam_unix)[12750]: session opened for user foo by (uid=0)

Then, last_hop_server becomes %hostname% and source_server becomes
%syslogtag%.

This last hop server is using rsyslog v3, so it seems to me I have to
instruct v4 that the input is coming in a non-default format.

Cheers.
