Import syslogd SoC project by Martin Schuette:
	- new syslog protocol api syslogp(3) that supports structured data
	  and draft-rfc timestamps
	- reliable tcp connections with queueing
	- encrypted connections

Make HTML-save.

Merge the thorpej-syslogd-hack-branch down to the trunk.  Enhancements
include:

- Extend the syntax of syslog.conf to allow selections of log destinations
  by comma-separated lists of program name (including kernel-generated
  messages) and originating host name.
- Ability to pipe selected messages through arbitrary filter commands.
- Ability to specify priority comparison operations.
- Improvements to domain name handling.
- Conversion to use kqueue for communication and signal events, eliminating
  all unsafe signal handlers.
- Allow spaces as well as tabs in syslog.conf.
- Log kernel printfs at LOG_NOTICE instad of LOG_CRIT.
- Ability to log facility/priority with a log message.
- Reliability improvements.

Make the -U option treat "*" as "all levels" by explcitiy setting
comparison flags for it internally.  Also extend the syntax to allow
"!level" or "!=level", similar to Linux's syslogd.

From FreeBSD.

Add the ability to specify how the priority should be compared in
syslog.conf, e.g.:

*.<notice
*.=err
*.>=debug

Add a -U option that changes the default comparison from ">=" to "=".

Add a -v option that causes the facility and priority to be logged with
the message.  One -v logs it numerically, a second -v logs it by name.

From FreeBSD, with the exception of changing the unique priority option
to -U (we already have a -u).

Grammar and typo fixes.

Allow !prog specifications to apply to kernel messages.  For example,
if you wanted to match messages of the form:

raid0: disk exploded into tiny pieces

you could use:

!raid0
kern.err			/var/log/raid0-errors

From FreeBSD.

If a log file name is prefixed with a - (e.g. "-/var/log/somefile"),
don't sync it after writing kernel log messages to it.  Syntax compatible
with Linux syslogd.

From FreeBSD.

Extend the program and hostname specification syntax to allow comma-separated
lists of programs and hostnames.

Inspired by a similar change in FreeBSD, but implemented differently.

Extend the !prog syntax to allow !+prog and !-prog, similar to the +hostname
and -hostname functionality.

From FreeBSD.

Extend the syslog.conf syntax to allow selecting messages based on
the originating host.  "+hostname" selects messages from the specified
host, and "-hostname" selects messages from hosts other than the specified
host.

From FreeBSD.

Further elaborate on the pipe-to-filter support.

Add the ability to pipe selected messages through an arbitrary filtering
command.

From FreeBSD, who in turn took the idea from IRIX.

Extend the syntax of syslog.conf to allow selections of log destinations
by program name.

From FreeBSD.

Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22366, verified by myself.

Match example code with example comment; multiple selectors should be
separated by semicolons (in BUGS section); from jmc@openbsd.
While here, use more macros.

Drop a .Pp, sort sections.

- Fix location of RCS Id string.
- It's now syslogd.pid, not syslog.pid.

minor .Nm cleanup

Merge/sync with 4.4lite2. Fixed HISTORY line for syslog.conf.5. Note
that the claim in the HISTORY line for syslogd.8 that it appeared in
4.3BSD is probably bogus -- I remember it being a lot older.
