This really sounds like you haven't got version 1.25.2.1 of
newsyslog.c installed.... This was when the above format was added
and was committed to -stable on May 19.
Having said that, I would have thought you should be seeing a
``malformed interval'' message if you had an old newsyslog, so the
only other thing I can think of is that you've got something dodgy in
your newsyslog.conf.... what do you see if you ``cat -vet
newsyslog.conf'' ?
