An additional data point: I also upgraded yesterday and have had
similar syslogd problems. In my case, however, exim is the MTA and it
runs from inetd, so starting/stopping syslogd should be irrelevant.
Killing the odd process (exim IIRC), has returned my mail delivery to
usefulness. I'll let you know if it breaks again.

Perl is really designed more for the guys that will hack Perl at least
20 minutes a day for the rest of their career. TCL/Python is more a
"20 minutes a week", and VB is probably in that "20 minutes a month"
group. :) -- Randal Schwartz
