Please check syslog-ng options. Below the message I sent to the list some time ago:

----------------------------------------------
I'm still not sure, but it seems to be correlated: if syslog-ng starts before an
attempt to login (ssh or console - it doesn't matter) the login process is
getting stuck.

As a workaround you can add "--no-caps" to the daemon parameters.

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

I thought the issue went away after syslog-ng update....
