If I'm getting syntax errors, that's precisely how I check for them.

Eh?
The code is not "run" when doing "icinga2 daemon -C" - there's no output to
/var/log/icinga2/icinga2.log, and there's no output from the log() functon
calls on the console - it just reports the number of different types of
ConfigItems etc (and any syntax errors if there are any).
What I was expecting log() to do was to put something into the standard
Icinga2 log file when the function call got executed, so that I could see what
the code was doing at the time.
As it is, all I can use for now is the output of the Notification, which sends
me an email. Effective, but a bit slow and a bit tedious...
