(Get the code!)
After more investigation, it seems that tail -f is not the right way to reproduce this. Using cat or dd shows that messages are actually getting out of /proc/kmsg. Strace shows that klogd is actually reading them, and is doing a sendto() to send them to syslog.
However, the problem is that they are not being sent to /var/log/kern.log, presumably because they are being sent as klogd.* and syslog is looking for kern.*. You can see the messages in /var/log/syslog, so it's definite that they are getting there.
Reverting back to klogd.
