Update: I found the problem, it exists in all versions of syslog-ng OSE
as far as I checked.

The good news is, I already have a workaround (with side effects), and
have a plan on how to fix the issue properly.

I need to leave work now, but I'll have a go at it from home. With a bit
of luck, I can present a solution by the end of the day. If not, I'll
publish the workaround for the time being.
