There's a problem with rsyslog that prevents listening on privileged ports: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/789174

Thus, I have changed the default port to 6514. I'm not tackling upgrades at all yet, as that's going to require significantly more work. For one thing, we'll require a means of updating the port (syslog-port is expected to be immutable), and to enable syslog-tls (also expected to be immutable). It might be better just to have an agent worker that manages syslog configuration.
