Perhaps you should read the messages for issue 7077, linked to by
Peter above. You'll see that according to RFC 5424, syslog UDP
messages should be encoded in UTF-8 with a BOM, not ASCII. Revisions
r75586 and later of the Python repository implement the correct fix
for the problem.

My suggestion (in the blog post I linked to) would apply to socket
applications other than syslog.
