This issue also affects rsyslog. I hit this when I upgraded a bunch of servers, including an rsyslog server from wheezy to jessie.
There are still a few wheezy servers that have yet to be upgraded, but now they are unable to send their logs to the jessie rsyslog server due to what appears to be this bug. Only the upgraded jessie servers can send through their logs. Looks like I'll have to implement a work-around. Since this is obviously an issue with stable Debian releases, I too do not believe this bug should be marked as closed. Adam
