I have enjoyed syslog-ng on Solaris for several years so I'm now suffering from a bit of withdrawal having built my fresh, new OpenBSD 3.3 system. I am able to get libol and syslog-ng built just fine. However, I'm noticing that BSD's syslogd creates /dev/log upon initiation and tears it down during shutdown. I saw the patch for casting (void *) NULL in af_program.c in the ports tree but, besides that, I can't seem to find any other patches that would cause syslog-ng to behave similarly. Does anyone have recommendations for the proper set of source() statements to use on OpenBSD? Much thanks in advance.

Your best bet is to use the port or a binary package and mail the MAINTAINER <jakob@openbsd.org> if you have problems with it or additions to it. He is quite thorough and responsive, so there may be a reason it isn't already incorporated.
