The easy way to silence it would be to use chmod --quiet (or -f). As I commented in bug #285530, better yet would be to make sure this "repair" chmod is not needed by creating the files correct from the start. Also, syslogd could create missing directories itself when it creates the files. Or ignore files for which there is no existing directory. This would need write permissions for the syslogd process in /var/log though.
