+Backport a bugfix from glibc-2.2.5 to glibc-2.2.2 for the following problem:
+  When syslog-ng is restarted (or HUPed), vixie-cron (and probably other
+  programs) stop logging to syslog.
+
+
+2001-08-27 Ulrich Drepper <Drepper@redhat.com> * misc/syslog.c (vsyslog):
+  Try a bit harder to use syslogd.  If the connection went down after we
+  first used it try to connect again and resend the message before printing
+  to the console.
