I don't think mailwrapper is a good analog, because mailwrapper is designed to preserve the userland command interface (sendmail, mailq, newaliases) independently of the MTA used.
syslogd, on the other hand, has no userland command interface. It just logs. But if you only look at the drop-in replacement aspect of mailwrapper, yes, that is what I'm proposing.
