OK, I see the difference. My /var/log is the same as yours, but my /var/log/syslog is syslog:adm. If I chown it to root:adm, I get the same behavior as you... Now to see why/when it is root:adm (and if it should be). I suspect my syslog:adm is because rsyslog created it for me at some point. But yours may have been from sysklogd days?
