That sounds familiar, can you try if this patch fixes it for you?

https://github.com/algernon/syslog-ng/commit/7b6280a183e1edec0be2e6b2b0b4bcad341881f6

(On the hotfix/3.4/afmongodb-notify-deadlock of my repo[1])

 [1]: git://github.com/algernon/syslog-ng.git

If that works, then I really, really need to get back to working on
LogThreadedDestdriver, and get rid of these things once and for all.
