If sshguard appears in the proc table then you can expect it is 
running properly.
No idea why syslog logs that message with a correct path (I expect 
syslogd is
running as root).

Please try to you use simply

auth.*;authpriv.*			| /usr/local/sbin/sshguard

(w/o exec) in syslog.conf, and restart syslogd. Do you have sshguard 
running?
