Thanks for your comment. You are totally right - this is a severe bug.

The difference:

Ubuntu Dapper:
syslog   11501  0.0  0.1   1768   712 ?        Ss   06:25   0:00 /sbin/syslogd 
-u syslog

Ubuntu Feisty:
root      4649  0.0  0.0   1700   648 ?        Ss   13:58   0:00 /sbin/syslogd

So this is definitely security related.
