[syslog-ng]Strange Directories created [I have read the listserv to no avail]

Hi All,
My syslog-ng server reports various directories based off of kernel-messages
instead of hostnames. I've read the listserv and tried the various options
suggested by to no avail.
Perhaps someone can help with a suggestion as to what is going wrong here?
Info:
syslog-ng-1.5.17-1
config file looks like
options { use_fqdn(yes); keep_hostname(no); use_dns(yes); long_hostnames(on);
sync(3); log_fifo_size(1000); };
...
destination hosts {
file("/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/$FACILITY/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/$FACILITY$YEAR$MONTH$DAY"
owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(yes)); };
...
log { source(src); destination(hosts); };
Directories look like this:
/var/log/HOSTS
?for
?set
host.auckland.ac.nz

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't figure out where to go next.

Thanks,
Harry
