the strace file you posted only shows the syscall dump for the init
script itself, syslog-ng is not included, it is not really useful.

I have tried to reproduce the problem without success on my local
machine, so it is at least not an easily reproducable crash.

To make it possible to debug the problem please:

1) compile syslog-ng with debugging enabled (--enable-debug configure
option)

2) enable core files, by changing the core file limit using "ulimit -c
unlimited", and making sure syslog-ng runs in a writable directory
(check /proc/<pid>/cwd and check if it is really writable)

3) wait for syslog-ng to dump core, and then send me the syslog-ng
binary and the core file in private.
