I just fixed this issue, it was a regression of the recent changes to imuxsock as I thought.
Fixed with commit http://git.adiscon.com/?p=rsyslog.git;a=commitdiff;=026f59388a105597c3c6890bb 0c83652cb712903 To be released with 5.7.5, 6.1.5. Thanks again for reporting this bug. It was a really nasty one.
