[syslog-ng] question about pattern database version 1

[Guillaume Rousse]

Hello list.

The pattern database format 1 seems to force a mandatory program 
pattern, wich doesn't exists for some messages, suchas  kernel oops and 
memory exhaustion issues:
Jan 19 15:18:24 localhost Call Trace:
Jan 19 15:18:24 localhost ntpd invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1201d2, 
order=0, oomkilladj=0

It seems to be corrected in version 2:
rulesets can be defined without program pattern where these act as a 
fail-back rule sets if no program pattern is matching or when message 
does not have program part

I guess that means I'm can't do anything to catch those problems as long 
as syslog-ng 3.1 OSE is released, right ?
