Actually, it looks like it was just an improperly initialized variable, so
that the default for creating directories was most often "on" (as
documented), but could randomly be "off" as well. This bug was hidden all the
way back to v3 (I didn't bother to look at v2...). Simple solution, now
merged into all branches. The patch for is

http://git.adiscon.com/?p=rsyslog.git;a=commitdiff;h=7b40604e9ae8a0948f17eafd
4299eeb7fb3356c2

Or probably better just pull the newest git version.

I would appreciate if you let me know if it works for you.

Thanks,
Rainer
