------------------------------------

Note also that the javadoc above the dateFormat is not quite correct.

> There is a extra space in the SyslogLayout so that that message is not compliant with the BSD format:
> {code}
>     /**
>      * Date format used if header = true.
>      */
>     private final SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd HH:mm:ss ", Locale.ENGLISH);
> {code}
> Note the extra space at the end of the date format.
> When this is used, another space is appended afterwards all the same:
> {code}
>         addDate(event.getTimeMillis(), buf);
>         buf.append(' ');
> {code}
> This leads to incorrect data containing two spaces between the date field and the localHostname.
