I recently tried instituting $YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY directory creation into my
syslogging, due to problems with logrotation.  An hour after I got it to
work it dropped a core file and died, indicating that it was aborted.  Can
anyone see if there is a reason from the following info.

PIII 500, 512MB, Redhat Linux 7.0.  Syslog-ng 1.4.11, libol-0.2.21
Any help appreciated.  Thanks,
