PS - You could try uncommenting *OnlyHost in the 
conf/logfiles/cisco.conf file to see if that helps limit to only "hostname".

The problem is with out that the onlyhost aka $HostStrip only gets 
called if --splithosts is on which is part of the chunk that I'm 
cleaning up. [Around line 1158 in logwatch.pl]
