The corruption I was able to track down was in the kernel, this

will fix the problem, (the problem I saw was corrupted avc messages
which always started with 118 leading white spaces). This is not a
final patch as I still need to determine what the issue is with
printk.
The "%*.*s" format specifier is not popular in the kernel, iirc it is
only used in a few routines, which include the audit and avc routines.
So yes there is a separate kernel side issue dealing with corrupted
avc messages.
I've included this patch, and some fixes for bugs in the IPC code
pointed out by Mounir, in kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.audit.6
