`*` means that packets will be received from a remote peer on any port.
Since the point of interest is the syslogd instance (not the remote peer),
the appropriate verb is "received", not "sent".

- Clarify -p/-S options by using appropriate subject-verb modifiers
(verb and modifiers suggested that the subject should have been
singular).
- Simplify/correct -a description:
-- Be more terse when describing IPv4 (the "usual dotted notation"
isn't necessarily well understood by the reader). Being blunt and
saying "IPv4 address" with an optional netmask is.
-- prefixlen is the appropriate terminology for IPv6.
-- mask/prefixlen is optional, not required (as noted later on in the
section).
-- split up IPv4/IPv6 use so to clarify both forms.
-- Fix wordiness when describing the optional "service" specifier.
- -T: Use "cannot" instead of "can't" [*].
Bump .Dd for the changes.

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 removes the hardcoded value for the field (16) and the equivalent
hardcoded lengths in logmsg(..).
This change is being done to help stage future work to add RFC5424/RFC5434
support to syslogd(8).

- Set O_CLOEXEC to the signal pipe and /dev/klog.
- Use a single signal handler to catch both SIGHUP and SIGCHLD.
- Fix a bug which did FD_SET() the writer-end of the pipe.
the main I/O multiplex loop. select() now watches
a pipe which is written by the new skinny signal
handlers and the received signals are handled inside
the loop sequencially.
This eliminates a complex signal mask to guarantee
async-signal safety.
Don't close all file descriptors greater than STDERR_FILENO (2) in
waitdaemon(..) -- only close fd (file descriptor for /dev/null used in
subsequent calls to dup2) if it's greater than STDERR_FILENO.

- Split deadq_remove() into deadq_remove() and
deadq_removebypid().
- Normalize variable names of struct deadq_entry *.
now processed in struct socklist in a consistent manner.
- Add helper functions to add a new entry of struct socklist, filed, or peer.
- Use the same routine for -l, -p, and -S.
- Close /dev/klog when read(2) failed.
now maintained in a single linked-list in a transport-independent manner.
- Use queue.h for linked-list structure.
- Use linked-list for AllowedPeers.
- Use getaddrinfo(8) even for Unix Domain sockets.
- Use macros to type-casting from/to struct sockaddr{,_in,_in6}.
- Define fu_* macro for union f_un to shorten the member names.
- Remove an extra #include <sys/type.h>.
- Add "static" to non-exported symbols.
- !INET support is still incomplete but will be fixed later.
There is no functional change except for some minor debug messages.

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.

Enable repeated line compression for lines of any length, instead of only
short lines. AFAICT repeated line compression was limited to short lines as
a RAM optimization, which made sense when karels added it in 1988, but no
longer. The penalty is a paltry 904B of RAM per file logged.

syslogd already re-reads the configuration file and the hostname when
receiving a SIGHUP, so it makes sense to reset the timezone.
Special care was taken to ensure we don't break installations running
with a custom TZ variable.

Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.
