CCing list.

Then shouldn't

log_destination = 'stderr'

be

log_destination = 'syslog'

You may also want to check that the syslog configuration has not changed
and it is actually configured to catch the Postgres output.

Would not hurt to check the init.d script to see if it is overriding the
logging settings.
