Subject:   why does dmesg.boot get overwritten?

Hello all,
        I wonder why after a day or two uptime my /var/run/dmesg.boot gets
        completely overwritten by various messages, mostly generated by
		  log_in_vain (eg Connection attempt to UDP 127.0.0.1:512 from 
		  127.0.0.1:1654) but also a few others. I thought dmesg.boot is there
		  to preserve the messages output at boot time? 
		  
		  What could cause it to get clobbered with anything else than boot
		  information? Some syslog settings? Or is there anything else I have
		  to consider about that particular problem? I'll attach my syslog.conf
		  if needed.

Thanks and regards
