[Mimedefang] Slave dies prematurely

I just discovered that if an incoming email has an attachment with
an extension that filter_bad_filename wants to filter out, I get the
following errors in my syslog...

Dec 19 16:56:27 tnt mimedefang-multiplexor: Slave 0 stderr: Usage:
Sys::Syslog::_PATH_LOG() at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux/Sys/Syslog.pm
line 277.

Dec 19 16:56:27 tnt mimedefang-multiplexor: Slave 0 died prematurely -- 
check your filter rules

Dec 19 16:56:27 tnt mimedefang-multiplexor: Reap: Idle slave 0 (pid 8486)
exited normally with status 255 (SLAVE DIED UNEXPECTEDLY)

Any idea what could be causing this?

I appear to be running mimedefang-2.7
