The problem is that no new unix domain sockets are accept()'ed. I don't
know why.

I seem to remember that I already answered this afternoon. In this special
case the old version of syklogd could be found on my private ftp dir:
ftp://ftp.infodrom.north.de/pub/people/joey/debian/sysklogd_1.3-26_i386.deb
You'll also find the new version which has the offending code removed:
ftp://ftp.infodrom.north.de/pub/people/joey/debian/sysklogd_1.3-28_i386.deb
