I was chatting with Chris on IRC, and tried to start syslogd with -s.
The bug does not seem to appear in my syslogd, which was compiled when
I did my last buildworld on Aug 25, 2001.
I'm looking at the diffs from Aug 25, so if I come up with sth by
running syslogd with -d, by tomorrow I'll have spotted this in more
detail - probably replying with the patch to fix it too. Off to
buildworld and bed, 'nite all.
