Dunno what you're up to but I'm running syslog from inetutils just fine. Cygwin tries to syslog on /dev/log if it's available (it's usually created by syslog) and there's also a /dev/kmsg pipe which would be utilized for kernel messages ... *if* Cygwin would have anything like kernel messages. Nothing gets sent to /dev/kmsg so far. Right now it's's only a proof of concept for using mailslots.
