Lucas found the right root cause: It looks like the preload lib is not loaded on that platform. See https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/1268
I can modify the test so that it is skipped if the preload fails, but I wonder why this happens in the first place (and if there is a better solution that skipping).
