I think the problem is caused by a bug in syslog-ng in which it includes
NUL characters in the message, e.g.

it tries to write something like $MSG\0\n, thus the line is truncated by
the '\0' character. it is triggered only with unix-dgram and udp
sources, but I didn't have time to look into it.

Can you check whether switching over to using unix-stream sources solves
your problem?
