syslog-ng-1.4.11/
libol-0.2.21/

i guess i'll try upgrading....

how does one log to multiple destinations without putting everything into the same
destination XXX {} container?

i've tried seperate destinations
ie...
destination x { tcp(208.210.124.50 port(514)); }
destinayion y { file("/var/log/ng/$HOST/$YEAR$MONTH$DAY/$FACILITY.$PRIORITY" dir_perm(0755) perm(0644)) }

and then in the log directive 
log {
    source(src);
    destination(x);
    destination(y);
}

but that gives me errors

| Ouch.  Probably a bug.  What version are you running?  Also, obvious
