If you enable syslog trap, for every syslog message being sent out, a
trap will also be generated. syslog trap is defined in
CISCO-SYSLOG-MIB.
ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/v2/CISCO-SYSLOG-MIB.my

clogMessageGenerated NOTIFICATION-TYPE
        OBJECTS { clogHistFacility,
                        clogHistSeverity,
                        clogHistMsgName,
                        clogHistMsgText,
                        clogHistTimestamp
                   }
        STATUS current
        DESCRIPTION
               "When a syslog message is generated by the device a
                clogMessageGenerated notification is sent. The
                sending of these notifications can be enabled/disabled
                via the clogNotificationsEnabled object."
        ::= { ciscoSyslogMIBNotifications 1 }

Once you get the trap from your trap listener, say HPOV, and gather all
the varbinds, you can actually restore the original syslog message

Following trap techtip also mentions syslog trap.
