Our messages crossed.

I've done some more investigation on syslog.c. I barely remembered that it was a
slightly patched version for the sake of klogd (I didn't care much about klogd
until recently). Actually it needs a special version because the glibc version
disallows kernel logging. A interesting thread showed up:

http://www.ecos.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2000-03/msg00097.html

In short: there even is a problem with that version. I'll now replace it with
the glibc version, which also removes the advertising clause. I'll then make the
necessary modifications to allow kernel logging. I'll also look at the other
klogd issue. As I said, klogd so far is a carry-over from sysklogd and not modified.
