[sr-dev] kamailio gets frozen when rsyslog-mysql cannot send the SQL query

Note that we don't use the "syslog remote protocol" as defined in RFC
5424. Kamailio logs to the local rsyslog server and rsyslog logs to a
local file(s) and also performs a SQL query to store the log in a
MySQL server.

Being a multiprocess blocking design it would be a bit difficult such
solution. Perhaps the "ping syslog" mechanism I suggested in my
initial mail :)
