Something like the following might work.
BIND:
...
channel my_syslog {
syslog local6;
severity info;
};
...
syslog.conf:
...
local6.* @remote-syslog-server // Forward all messages
with local6 facility to a remote syslog server
...
You don't have to use the local6 facility. Just choose some facility
that is not being used by any other process that logs to syslog.
