My immediate thought is that this ought to work, but testing it I can
see that it doesn't - there might be a bug there with the simple string
matching.
However, using a regular expression does work. So your LOG entry could
be written as
LOG /var/log/messages %arpwatch COLOR=yellow
and you'll get the result you want.
