Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rsyslog
rsyslog (4.2.0-2ubuntu5) karmic; urgency=low
* debian/rsyslog.rsyslog-kmsg.upstart: Use obs=1 to avoid delaying kernel
messages.
With the default value of 512, dd would wait for the buffer of such size
to become full before calling write(), potentially delaying some kernel
messages for a very long time.
debdiff attached.
