Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

All the '.conf' files not beginning with a '.' contained int he directory
following the keyword will be included.
This keyword can only be used in the first level configuration files.
Modify the default syslogd.conf to 'include' /etc/syslog.d and
/usr/local/etc/syslog.d
It simplify a lot handling of syslog from automation tools.

that already exists for hosts: being able to specify a section that applies
to every program *except* the one in question.
The normal syntax for program specification is still valid. For the new
capability, one uses:
!-program
Since there is no way to specify a program beginning with a dash in the old
syntax, as it would be interpreted as the case above, the following
alternative syntax to the original capability is provided:
!+program
This shouldn't introduce incompatibilities with any syslogd configuration
in production because -stable's syslogd does not support a dash anywhere in
the program specification.

a similar way to the way it can select messages from a given program.
Lines beginning with "+hostname" or "#+hostname" select messaes
from that hostname and lines beginning with "-hostname" or "#-hostname"
match messages not from that hostname.
There are some significant style issues left in the original program
selection code and the man page. This should be cleared up in some
later commits.
