Please post the output of `syslog-ng -s /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf'.
(In reply to comment #3) > Please post the output of `syslog-ng -s /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf'. Never mind. That's silly.
No version 3 syslog-ng ebuild uses this in its initd script, so you probably need to run etc-update or dispatch-conf to update whatever is in /etc/init.d.
