[syslog-ng] 3.01 facility(syslog) returns an error

Continuing with my 3.01 install.  My .conf files contains on line 61:

filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(syslog); };

[root at princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s                   
syntax error in /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng.conf at line 61.

However, if I change that to the numeric equivalent:

filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(5); };

[root at princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s                   
[root at princeton src]# 

the error goes away.
