           Summary: syslogd.conf include functionality is broken
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---

patch for 11-STABLE

this affects 11.1-RELEASE and 11-STABLE.

The config syntax is as follows:

include                                         /etc/syslog.d
include                                         /usr/local/etc/syslog.d


Unfortunately due to a bug in the code only one "include" line can be used and
any lines after an "include" statement negates all of the configuration that
was pulled in by that "include".

romain@ confirmed this bug and has this patch which applies to 11-STABLE, but
this bug seems to be gone in CURRENT. There have been a lot of syslogd.c
changes in CURRENT so it's hard to identify which commit may have inadvertently
fixed it.

It would be appreciated if this could be fixed in an ERRATA
