[syslog-ng] Syslog messages not stored in separate lines

[Balazs Scheidler]

This would be very strange indeed as the template of your file destination
includes a newline character at the end of every message, so it should not
depend on the input.

You sure that this is the destination config that you quote here? Did you
reload syslog-ng to use that config?
