Oh, you are using the development series. There are currently two
branches of syslog-ng: 1.6.x stable series, and the reimplementation of
syslog-ng currently tagged as 1.9.x to become 2.0.0 once it stabilizes.

If you are using 1.9.x the use of the latest snapshot is recommended. It
was also affected by the same problem but no release was prepared since
it was fixed.
