Public bug reported:

With latest systemd we now get wrong permissions on /var/log when
rsyslog is installed:

drwxr-xr-x 1 root syslog 772 Mär  5 09:20 /var/log

It's supposed to be 0775, we install /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/00rsyslog.conf
for that. As per documentation, the first match should win.

This is simple to reproduce:

$ cat test.conf
d /var/log 0775 root syslog -
d /var/log 0755 - - -

$ sudo SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug systemd-tmpfiles --create test.conf
[/home/martin/test.conf:2] Duplicate line for path "/var/log", ignoring.
Running create action for entry d /var/log
Found existing directory "/var/log".
chmod "/var/log" to mode 775
/var/log created successfully.
Running remove action for entry d /var/log
Running create action for entry d /var/log
Found existing directory "/var/log".
chmod "/var/log" to mode 755
/var/log created successfully.
Running remove action for entry d /var/log

So it doesn't recognize that it already has a match, and applies the
second rule anyway.
