The changelog says this should work with newer kernels:
rsyslog (4.2.0-2ubuntu6) lucid; urgency=low
* debian/rsyslog.rsyslog-kmsg.upstart:
- Drop this additional job; kernel changes have meant that rsyslog
may read from /proc/kmsg directly after dropping privileges.
LP: #517773
* debian/rsyslog.preinst:
- Remove on upgrade
* debian/rsyslog.conf:
- Restore to reading from /proc/kmsg

I'm running 2.6.32-12-generic #16-Ubuntu and it definitely does not work
there. Even if it works in the latest kernels, this will be a problem
for upgrades from Karmic, because rsyslog gets restarted before the
kernel is upgraded.
