CentOS - Mar 2015 - rsyslog 5.8.10 crashing on centos 6.6 due to relp

So I was having an issue with rsyslog in one of my centos 6.6 hosts:

[root at scan ~]# /etc/init.d/rsyslog start

^C
[root at scan ~]#

Since this is the only machine I put relp in (I was playing with it),
and all the others are working, I decided to remove
rsyslog-relp-5.8.10-10.el6_6.x86_64 to see if that solves the issue.
So, I

yum remove rsyslog-relp

and restarted rsyslog and it works now. Now that is fixed, what would
cause rsyslog-relp to crash rsyslog?
