[syslog-ng] Rewriting log messages

We've been using the syslog-ng-anon patch[1] to rewrite log traffic (mainly
to remove the redundant integer timestamp logged by qmail-pop3d via
splogger(8)).

We're looking at the upcoming syslog-ng 2.0 upgrade that's coming with the
next Debian release (etch) and haven't been able to find an equivalent.
I saw a request or two[2] for a feature like this, but don't see it in the
latest syslog-ng source or docs.

Is a feature like this planned, or is there another way I can go about
rewriting log traffic?

thanks,
john
