It seems I had missed something in the kernel configuration. I can't say what 
exactly because I added several options (life's too short to go through all 
the network options one at a time).

So now, Shorewall is not dropping syslog packets, and syslog-ng is logging 
correctly. This is my /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:

----------------
@version: 3.6
@include "scl.conf"
options { 
        threaded(yes);
        chain_hostnames(no); 
        stats_freq(43200); 
        mark_freq(0); 
};

source src { system(); internal(); };
source s_remote { udp (ip(192.168.1.2) port(514) ); };

filter f_cron { facility (cron); };
filter f_ncron { not facility (cron); };

destination d_remote { file("/var/log/remote"); };
destination d_cron { file("/var/log/cron"); };
destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); };
destination console_all { file("/dev/tty12"); };

log { source(src); filter(f_cron); destination(d_cron); };
log { source(src); filter(f_ncron); destination(messages); };
log { source(src); filter(f_ncron); destination(console_all); };
log { source(s_remote); destination(d_remote); };
----------------

I hope that will be useful to someone.
