I agree, but one of the nice things about syslog interface is that it hides
all the socket/device stuff. so getting back to the socket api is
somewhat unsatisfactory.
Also, I think having this directly in err() and warn() and friends would be
more elegant. and this doesn't seem hard to do. something like using
a function pointer to use fprintf or syslog, and an additionnal void* to use
either err_file or syslog priority.
Does this sound ok or is it an unuseful complication of code?
