All, I keep getting the following when attempting to start syslog-ng:

/usr/local/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: line 10: @version:: command not found
/usr/local/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: line 12: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/usr/local/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: line 12: `options { use_dns(yes);'

Not sure why I'm getting these messages when I'm running a later version:
