I run a number of 4.9 i386 boxes that functions as routers and are
logging to memory buffers.
Today I noticed that if I sighup the syslogd process the memory
buffers are no longer being logged to.
Below is the output from syslogd -d and I'm guessing the problem has
something to do with the Membuf no match thing.
$ sudo syslogd -d
off running
