 Well, I had some doubts about the severity level. This bugreport is about the 
fact that init logs every message with level LOG_INFO. So not a bug in the 
strict sense, but I chose severity level "low" instead of "enhancement" 
because I feel this behaviour needs improvement and "enhancement" might not be 
looked at in the near future. Maybe I should even have chosen "normal".
 Another thing, do you think the report is less closely examined since I 
posted using Win-98 ;)?
 FYI, this is bugreport #29406. Although the patch I wrote seems to function 
on my system (only added a true loglevel parameter to the code for the log 
function) I have some questions as for the appropriate log level to use. Fe, 
the kernel uses LOG_WARN for "normal" messages. I feel this to be the 
appropriate log level for most init messages as well ("entering runlevel"). 
Also I am not sure if a segmentation fault should be logged with level LOG_ERR 
or higher.
 Thanx for your interest,

                                        Bye,

                                        Leonard.
