Maybe it died before?

There were two problem in connection with klogd:

. klogd was getting a segmentation fault when the log message
contained a '%' sign. Such messages occurred on 2.1.78 first.
This was addressed in sysklogd 1.3-20.

. klogd wasn't terminating immediately when receiving a termination
signal. This was addressed in sysklogd 1.3-19.

You'll find the most recent sysklogd packge at

ftp://ftp.infodrom.north.de/pub/people/joey/sysklogd/sysklogd-1.3-20.tar.gz

The most recent Debian package can be found at

ftp://ftp.infodrom.north.de/pub/people/joey/debian/sysklogd_1.3-20_<arch>.deb

It's already uploaded but still sits in the Debian incoming directory
but you can fetch it from:

ftp://llug.sep.bnl.gov/pub/debian/Incoming/
