Oh, looky here:
[quote="rsyslog-7.6.0/Changelog":3ecx0mik]ompgsql bugfix: improper handling
of auto-backgrounding mode. If rsyslog was set to auto-background itself
(default code behaviour, but many distros now turn it off for good reason),
ompgsql could not properly connect. This could even lead to a segfault. The
core reason was that a PG session handle was kept open over a fork,
something that is explicitely forbidden in the PG API. Thanks to Alain for
the analysis and the patch.[/quote:3ecx0mik]

Version 7.6.0 is not visible from
[url:3ecx0mik]http://www.rsyslog.com/change-log/[/url:3ecx0mik]
at the moment, it's only reachable from the Downloads page. I only noticed
this after you mentioned 7.4.6 despite 7.4.10 already being available, so I
assumed you meant 7.6.0.

I haven't verified this yet --  there are new build dependencies not yet
present in Debian -- so I'll wait for the maintainer of the Debian package
to update it. But that bugfix sounds pretty much spot on.

Thanks for your help, David!
