Yes.

That's the result of the DSO not being loaded.

To make sure it's SELinux related, run

/usr/sbin/setenforce 0

and then start syslogd again.  It should work nicely.  After that run

/usr/sbin/setenforce 1

to turn it back on and then start syslogd again (with the other program 
still running).  Since the restart should fail it doesn't matter that 
there would be two copies.  But the advantage is that now 
/var/log/messages will get the appropriate message.
