I'll try to double check the logic.
Oddly enough, it seems to be fixed by https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng-3.4/commit/06fe6ea00df758fef6060931eb3f... which is an update in ivykis. The related code in syslog-ng stayed the same. Algernon gave me some code to help debugging: fprintf(stderr, "FREEBSD RELEASE: %s\n", release); and it printed the same info both before and after: FREEBSD RELEASE: 9.1-RC3 Just tested also on FreeBSD 7, and it also seems to work (but there it needs one little patch: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/ports/sysutils/syslog-ng/fi... ).
