Ah, the havoc of one stray space at the beginning of
a line.
I had noticed that all the other examples of various
logs one could create in syslog.conf worked right. What on Earth
was so special about:
*.info;auth.info;mail.warning;cron.warning /var/log/syslog
It's that one stray space before the first asterisk.
I removed it and everything started working.
