No, you can do that with rsyslog and syslog-ng too. Both allow you to
tinker with the syslog headers.

Ideally, changing the Apache-generated log format to conform to a syslog
RFC would be ideal, but I understand that's not something most are
willing - or able/allowed - to make. So the next best option is to
fiddle with the syslog fields on the syslog side of things.
