I'm not sure about the exact details of what sys logger CentOS 5 has.
Perhaps a look at its list of packages will give some information:

http://vault.centos.org/5.7/os/SRPMS/

I have no plans of changing this practice.  Will I will guarantee is
that deadwood-* will always point to a single directory with the
current stable Deadwood release, so a line like this in the relevant
shell script should always work (and it's a bug if this doesn't work):

mv deadwood-* deadwood
