CHANGES:
Deadlock detection:
* The supervisor process of syslog-ng can automatically check if
syslog-ng entered a deadlock and does not respond. If the syslog-ng
process does not respond, the supervisor process restarts syslog-ng.
By default, the supervisor process checks for timeouts every 300
seconds.
To modify this value, use the '--deadlock-check-timeout' or '-D'
command-line option of syslog-ng
