The man page for syslog.conf doesn't have a way to avoid versions of a facility message.
Other than rewriting a system component - I do not know how to change the behavior.
You are viewing the output of auth facility. Other than changing su to use separate facilities (you can have local or user defined syslog.conf facilities) and recode su using the new facility I cannot think of an answer.
You can redirect output to a door or a temp regular file, write a daemon that parses things out, then write those parsed goodies to a logfile of your choice.

syslog2dlf
SYSLOG2DLF.IN(1) LogReport's Lire Documentation SYSLOG2DLF.IN(1)
NAME
syslog2dlf - convert syslog log files to DLF
SYNOPSIS
syslog2dlf
DESCRIPTION
This script uses the Lire::Syslog module to create a DLF representation of the syslog log files. It can process all the syslog log formats
supported by that module.
EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced by syslog:
$ syslog2dlf < syslog.log
syslog2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:
$ lr_log2report syslog < /var/log/syslog.log
