[syslog-ng] PCRE subst example from documentation produces error

[Daniel Maher]

Hello,

While following the example given here :
http://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-v3.2-guide-admin-en.html/index.html-single.html#example_regexp_pcre

I copied and pasted the string, then attempted to restart the daemon;
unfortunately, this was the result :

---
Error parsing rewrite expression, syntax error, unexpected
LL_IDENTIFIER, expecting ')' in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf at line
354, column 27:

        {subst("a*", "?", field("message") type("pcre") flags("utf8"
"global"));  };
                          ^^^^^

syslog-ng documentation:
http://www.balabit.com/support/documentation/?product=syslog-ng
mailing list: https://lists.balabit.hu/mailman/listinfo/syslog-ng
Cannot load /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf
---

Have I managed to paste incorrectly, or is the documentation incorrect,
or is it something else entirely ?
