In /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/syslogd, there is already a regular
expression to match these sorts of things:
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ syslogd [.0-9]{5}#[0-9]+: restart

RedHat:
Jun 17 04:03:14 localhost syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
I would suggest rejecting this bug since restart of syslog of very

prolly add an example on how to prevent this event from being reported

Thanks for your bug report. I'm not sure that this might not be of
interest. If somebody managed to stop the syslog and start if some time
later again it might well be a problem, but as I'm no member of the
server team, there might a more relevant opinion on the matter.
Even if it gets accepted, I
