It looks like syslogd has to be started with the -a flag to enable archiving. When I added the flag to the ProgramArguments section of / System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.syslogd.plist, the messages correctly expired and the database was archived daily. However, in a standard Mac OS X installation, the flag is omitted and archiving is disabled - old messages are purged from /var/log/asl.db weekly and the log database starts fresh.
I guess the only option is to use asl_add_log_file() and manage the log files manually.
