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.

This allows a separate process to monitor when and how
syslogd exits. That process can then restart syslogd if needed.

standard ports, but it can't *receive* them (port 514 is
hardcoded). This commit adds that missing feature.
(NB: I actually needed this feature for a server farm where
multiple jails run with shared IP addresses, and every jail
should have its own syslogd process.)
As a side effect, syslogd now compiles with WARNS=6.

when they don't exist, but sometimes its quite useful (eg. we use
non-standard log files and memory backed /var/, which is populated on
boot).
Add -C option which tells syslogd(8) to create log files if they don't
exist.

- Make syslogd open an additional socket /var/run/logpriv, with 0600
permissions.
- In libc, try to use this socket.
- Do not loop forever if we are using this socket (partial backout of 1.31)

with the old behavior available via the -o option (it might still be
useful if one has many kernels and cares which messages came from
which). If the boot file is not used as the prefix, it is still
logged once at startup.
This change is prompted by the fact that the boot file is now much
longer ("/boot/kernel/kernel" vs. "/kernel"), which significanlty
bloats the syslogd output.

add a flag to syslogd which prevents this conversion.
