Fix segfault on x86_64 when using UseSyslog
Due to differences in handling va_list between i686 and x86_64, this bug
can only be seen on x86_64. va_list usage is not allowed but we had been
getting away with it. See
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-programming/2008-02/msg00005.html
for details and explanation.
This fixes FS#11096.
