syslog broken in F10?

I've also been meaning to look into why logrotate (apparently) is
obliterating my /var/log/boot.log before it gets rotated. boot.log is
initially filled with info -- as also viewed by plymouth-log-viewer right
after bootup -- but it eventually gets truncated and rotated, instead of
just rotated.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root      0 2008-12-15 06:02 /var/log/boot.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root      0 2008-11-28 09:48 /var/log/boot.log-20081130
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root      0 2008-11-30 04:02 /var/log/boot.log-20081205

Anyone else seeing this? I realize that for a long time in previous fedora
releases boot.log was often empty, but with f10 it's not, at least
initially.
