Hi,
These packages are from the syslog-ng site. The name seems to match
what's inside the package AFAICT (see below).
It looks like our 32-bit Scientific Linux machines, as well as 32- and
64-bit RHEL machines have no problem with these RPMs. It's only the yum
on 64-bit Scientific Linux that's not showing them.
Is there a way to tell yum that 'amd64' is valid?

Summary : Next generation system logging daemon
Description :
The syslog-ng application is a flexible and highly scalable system
logging tool.
It is often used to manage log messages and implement centralized
logging, where
the aim is to collect the log messages of several devices to a single,
central
log server.
The main features of syslog-ng include:
* Support for the BSD (RFC 3164) and IETF (RFC 5424-5428) syslog
protocol
standards
* Secure log transfer and storage using public-key encryption
* Reliable log transfer using TCP and TLS
* Pattern based message classification
* Direct database access for MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and
SQLite
* Flow-control
* Message filtering based on the content and properties of messages
* Message rewriting
* IPv4 and IPv6 support
* Ability to handle high message rates
* Support for heterogeneous UNIX environments
