Greetings,

I've got some follow up to my problem with syslogd running at 95% CPU.  I've got log entries in /var/log/messages that contain crap, as in: 

Mar 31 10:14:22 basil /kernel: l09asfd09af3434ng0a0934j3409saa0sg09asf043r3q4l009<etc>

However, that isn't a real good representation of the message as it appears to be the entire ASCII set, with things I cannot reporduce on the keyboard.  These appear when starting syslog from rc.conf or by hand with -d.

I CVSup'ed last night and just finished a make world, including new kernel.  Same status.

-Rob
