Do you use a binary distribution?  If so, have you done a mass upgrade
since the previous reboot?  In that case it's quite possible that the
binary package that you thought was logging had a buggy configuration
that got fixed in the interim.

BTW, if this experience makes you feel like you are not in control of
the machine, then you never were.  In the end nobody is, anyway.  Be
thankful for your enlightenment!
