[syslog-ng] sylog-ng filters not working

Hello,

The log message is the following from the strace:
> <182>1 2016-08-03T10:27:50.645062-04:00 ::1 [[REDACTED]]...

As I see the IP address is ::1 in the message, as the hostname (or IP
address) comes after the timestamp.

So in this case the IPv4 filter won't kick in for an IPv6 address.

Kind regards,
Gergely Csordás
