This has mostly historical reasons. I copied the old sysklogd
syslog.conf almost verbatim, to be as compatible as possible and not
break any existing setups (like log checkers and stuff, which might look
for those files.)
So, for lenny, I definitely don't want to change that.
But it is something that could be looked into early during the squeeze
cycle.
Such a change though should probably be discussed on debian-devel first.
Cheers,
Michael
