I investigated this problem, running gdb syslog showed that syslog-ng crashed in g_static_private_set from glib
I first tried to rebuild syslog-ng from source to get debugging symbols, but pkgconfig crashed with the same error. This made me really suspect glib and indeed after upgrading to glib2.0-2.20 the problem disappeared. Note: I'm working with the original submitter and solved the problem on the same machine.

Apart from that the machine is a small server with very few packages and services installed.
