I get a similar error when attempting to send more than one remote syslog message this way. I would suggest switching to HSL:

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
    set hsl [HSL::open -proto UDP -pool syslog-ubuntu-pool]
    set debug 1
    set log_prefix "Debug: \"[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]\" >"
    if { $debug } { HSL::send $hsl "<134>$log_prefix log stuff" }
    if { $debug } { HSL::send $hsl "<134>$log_prefix log more stuff" }
    if { $debug } { HSL::send $hsl "<134>$log_prefix log something else" }
}
