Syslog patch problem on Solaris 8?

        We've just built a new server for a new domain and it looks like the
latest syslogd patch (110945-06) may stop mailscanner logging to syslog.
Can anyone else confirm this?

        The symptoms are that sendmail logs as normal but mailscanner though
running and processing normally, logs absolutely nothing.

        We are using the perl (5.005_03) which comes with Solaris 8 and have
used sucessfully on other servers. Backing out the syslogd patch appears
to cure the problem.
