Upon further investigation, I found that when the hostname is broadcast to everyone, the following also appears in
/var/log/messages:
May 17 09:28:11 galaxy
May 17 09:28:11 galaxy syslogd: Cannot glue message parts together

c.relname!~ '^pg_' ORDER BY "Name"
So the problem seems to stem from the "Cannot glue message parts together"
The hostname is being broadcast to with the level of "emerg" because if I
remove:
*.emerg *
from my syslog.conf file, I dont see the console message getting broadcast
anymore.
If anyone else has seen this or has any ideas, please let me know :).
