Metalog displaying on console


I use metalog as my system logger, and I like to have it display logs on tty12. Which it always used to do, no problem, courtesy of a simple script, "consolelog.sh", which just echoes to the tty.

It stopped working a while ago, possibly due to portage upgrading it, but I'm not sure. And now I can't get the blasted thing to display on tty12.

This is what comes up when I restart metalog:

Code:
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Process [12281] died with signal [15]
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Child [12408] exited with return code 127.
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Forked command "/usr/sbin/consolelog.sh 12 "May 10 21:36:45" "metalog" "Process [12281] died with signal [15]
" [12408].
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Process [12282] died with signal [15]
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Child [12409] exited with return code 127.
May 10 21:36:45 [metalog] Forked command "/usr/sbin/consolelog.sh 12 "May 10 21:36:45" "metalog" "Process [12282] died with signal [15]
" [12409].
I can't make anything useful out of this lot. Any advice would be appreciated!
