How annoying ... the PANIC message doesn't seem to have reached the log.
elog.c is careful to fflush(stderr) before abort(), so that isn't
supposed to happen. But it looks like you are using syslog for logging
(correct?) so maybe this is a problem with the syslog implementation
you're using. What's the platform exactly?
I wonder if it'd be reasonable to put a closelog() call just before
the abort() ...
