[syslog-ng] [PATCH 1/1] afmongodb: Fix a race condition in the queue & wakeup mechanism

[Balazs Scheidler]

We really have to nail the blocking log queue stuff. We have races here
and there and I'm not really confident by this patch either.

I've applied it anyway, but the priority of the proper solution is on
the top of my syslog-ng related todo list now.
