Depending on what you're requirements are, try OSSEC-HIDS
(www.ossec.net).  I've been using it for a couple weeks now and it's
pretty handy.  The longer I use it, the more I add to it, the better it
is.  Unfortunately there isn't an ebuild for it (yet).  But it's really
easy to install.  Plus it does a lot more than just log monitoring.

As far as other tools that might be available, you could try swatch or
any of the other ploethera of tools that are out there.  It really
depends on why you want to review your logs: curiosity? security?
regulation compliance?
