See the "print-time" configuration for the logging statement. The ARM 
says:

	"If print-time has been turned on, then the date and time will be 
	logged. print-time may be specified for a syslog channel, but is 
	usually pointless since syslog also logs the date and time."

Some versions of syslogd can log always using its localtime and some 
always using UTC (and ignore time stamps in syslog messages). Also I see 
in change logs there was a bug with print-time, but I don't know if that 
affected any release version or which ones.
