Hi Ezra,

Below message indicates:

messages.h:28:20: error: evtlog.h: No such file or directory

It is not able to find evtlog.h header file in specified location (EVTLOG_CFLAGS=/usr/local/eventlog/include). Check for evtloh.h file location and also modify your configuration option as:

./configure EVTLOG_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/eventlog/include/eventlog" EVTLOG_LIBS="-L/usr/local/eventlog/lib"

Alternate option:
You can define variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/eventlog/lib/pkgconfig and do ./configure residing in syslog-ng-2.1.1 directory followed by 'make' ... should work fine :)
