Even better the fixes are enclosed below... :-)
The following set of patches are what I just announced last Friday.
Give them a try and let me know if the problems are fixed.

No problem, hopefully they will make things better. Have a pleasant

+Version 1.3 Patch Level 1
+
+General. ------------------------------------------------------------------
+Cleanups in the Makefile.
+
+Patches to support compilation in the ALPHA environment. I have not
+been able to test these personally so if anyone has any feedback I
+would be interested in hearing from the Linux ALPHA community.
+
+Spelling and grammar corrections in the man pages.
+
+
+syslogd ------------------------------------------------------------------
+Patch to fix parsing of hostnames in syslogd.c.
+
+The return value of gethostbyname is now properly checked. This should
+fix the problems with core dumps when name resolution failed.
+
+Bounds error fixed when setting the file descriptors for UNIX domain
+sockets.
+
+
+klogd ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+Error checking and reporting enhanced. I have a couple of reports
+that klogd is experiencing errors when reading the /proc filesystem.
+Any additional information would be appreciated.
+
+The sys_syslog function has been renamed to ksyslog. This was in a
+set patches for ALPHA support so I am assuming that this is necessary
+for that environment
+
+
Version 1.3
Numerous changes, performance enhancements, code cleanups and bug fixes.

+In order to correctly diagnose the cause of failure a kernel developer
+needs to know what specific kernel functions or variable locations

+
+As part of the kernel compilation process a listing is created which

+
+The process of analyzing kernel protections faults works very well
+with a static kernel. Additional difficulties are encountered when
+attempting to diagnose errors which occur in loadable kernel modules.
+Loadable kernel modules are used to implement kernel functionality in
+a form which can be loaded or unloaded at will. The use of loadable
+modules is useful from a debugging standpoint and can also be useful
+in decreasing the amount of memory required by a kernel.
+
+The difficulty with diagnosing errors in loadable modules is due to
+the dynamic nature of the kernel modules. When a module is loaded the
+kernel will allocate memory to hold the module, when the module is
+unloaded this memory will be returned back to the kernel. This
+dynamic memory allocation makes it impossible to produce a map file
+which details the addresses of the variable and functions in a kernel
+loadable module. Without this location map it is not possible for a
+kernel developer to determine what went wrong if a protection fault
+involves a kernel module.
+
+.B klogd
+has support for dealing with the problem of diagnosing protection
+faults in kernel loadable modules. At program start time or in
+response to a signal the daemon will interrogate the kernel for a
+listing of all modules loaded and the addresses in memory they are
+loaded at. Individual modules can also register the locations of
+important functions when the module is loaded. The addresses of these
+exported symbols are also determined during this interrogation
+process.
+
+When a protection fault occurs an attempt will be made to resolve
+kernel addresses from the static symbol table. If this fails the
+symbols from the currently loaded modules are examined in an attempt
+to resolve the addresses. At the very minimum this allows klogd to
+indicate which loadable module was responsible for generating the
+protection fault. Additional information may be available if the
+module developer chose to export symbol information from the module.
+
+Proper and accurate resolution of addresses in kernel modules requires
+that
+.B klogd
+be informed whenever the kernel module status changes. The
+.B \-i
+and
+.B \-I
+switches can be used to signal the currently executing daemon that
+symbol information be reloaded. Of most importance to proper
+resolution of module symbols is the
+.B \-i
+switch. Each time a kernel module is loaded or removed from the
+kernel the following command should be executed:
+
+.nf
+.I klogd \-i
+.fi
+
+The
+.B \-p
+switch can also be used to insure that module symbol information is up
+to date. This switch instructs
+.B klogd
+to reload the module symbol information whenever a protection fault
+is detected. Caution should be used before invoking the program in
+\'paranoid\' mode. The stability of the kernel and the operating
+environment is always under question when a protection fault occurs.
+Since the klogd daemon must execute system calls in order to read the
+module symbol information there is the possibility that the system may
+be too unstable to capture useful information. A much better policy
+is to insure that klogd is updated whenever a module is loaded or
+unloaded. Having uptodate symbol information loaded increases the
+probability of properly resolving a protection fault if it should occur.
+
+Included in the sysklogd source distribution is a patch to the
+modules-2.0.0 package which allows the
+.B insmod,
+.B rmmod
+and
+.B modprobe
+utilities to automatically signal
+.B klogd
+whenever a module is inserted or removed from the kernel. Using this
+patch will insure that the symbol information maintained in klogd is
+always consistent with the current kernel state.
