[syslog-ng] 1.1.14 being bashful?

Hey all,

Recently downloaded, compiled, and installed syslog-ng 1.1.14 and libol.
After a few mistarts with the config file, syslog-ng started up without
any error messages.  However, it doesn't appear that any messages are
actually getting logged.

None of the logfiles specified recieve data nor are they opened.  The only
files syslog-ng seems to open are two sockets, /dev/tty10, and /dev/tty9.

Any ideas?
My config file is attached.
