Hrm... I have a suspicion, that this is due to a bug that was fixed in
3.3.4 or 3.3.5. Can you try upgrading your syslog-ng to 3.3.5, and see
if the problem goes away?

My other idea would be that iscsi is sending multiline messages, and
that makes syslog-ng unhappy, but.. that should look a bit different, I
believe.
