I added that, just forgor to write it in the previous mail. The syntax
check passed ok and there are no errors generated from rsyslogd.

I still have 30 second sleep in select() and there is a number of write()
calls to FIFO (checked with lsof) before that which fail with EAGAIN.
The output of "strace -f -e trace=file rsyslogd ..." shows:
25169 open("/opt/bulb/var/rsyslog/to_parser", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 5
Then I negated the condition in preparePipe() to:
if(!pData->bBlocking)
mode |= O_NONBLOCK;
and now strace doesn't show O_NONBLOCK and there is no sleep in select().
I'll run more comprehensive tests just to be sure, but this looks ok.

There is rpmfind.net which will probably find the packages you want, maybe
even for a Linux distribution you want it for. But the quality of the
packages isn't always as good as it could be, so I tend to stay away from
random sources for production systems. I'd try it for the development
purposes, which is what you need.
