[Syslog-ng-maintainers] Bug#802888: syslog-ng: Wrong date in kernel logs on SheevaPlug

[Benoit Friry]

Package: syslog-ng
Version: 3.5.6-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

SheevaPlug is a small armv5tel device. 
I encounter this issue only on this device.

On this device, date for kernel logs are wrong.
Standard logs are correct.

Please note date on "mvsdio" lines.
I suspect it Jan 10th, 1970. Uptime is 10 days.

NTP daemon is running.

I do not know if the wrong date comes from different handling
between system() ant internal() sources, or if it comes from 
the kernel itself.

Thanks,
Benoit
