Wait a sec.
With 4.4.2 (or any earlier version) I tried this:
start rsyslog
start xconsole
xconsole shows the last two log messages immediately

With 4.6.0 the xconsole window is blank (which I guess made me believe
it blocked)

With 4.6.0, I need to trigger a new log message (e.g. using logger
foo), and then xconsole will show a new message.

So, xconsole does indeed show messages, but the behaviour is different
to 4.4 and earlier
