[rsyslog] MARK frequency, too

[Rainer Gerhards]

Hi,

looks like I overlooked hte other post you mention. I'll have a look
into the issue, but need to finish some other things first. I'd
appreciate if you could file a bug report, so that it will not be
forgotten. You can do that at 

http://bugzilla.adiscon.com

Thanks,
Rainer
