Comment 3 Peter Vrabec 2007-07-30 10:14:55 UTC 
Could you test it with rsyslog-1.17.5-1, please. I wasn't able to reproduce it 
with the newest(-5) release on ppc64.

Comment 4 Joseph Sacco 2007-07-30 14:19:01 UTC 
Peter,

Version 1.17.5-1, fetched from Koji today, starts up immediately and runs on my
32-bit PPC.
