Can you provide some sample log lines? I think the proper cure would be to add a TCP-syslog driver to log4j. I would be willing to contribute, but my Java is weak and I don't know any log4j internals. So if you have someone who knows the udp driver, I think both of us together could quickly create at least a basic TCP driver.
