It does indeed seem to be broken. I don't have the problems you seem to
be having (missing ability to become root), though. My problem is that
nothing is logged. Syslogd seems to run just fine--the marks are written
to the syslog every 20 minutes as usual, but is seems as if other programs
can't communicate with it.
All the same, I concur with Bob: *don't* upgrade to sysklogd_1.3-29.
