Great.

I'll add this to my TODO list.

I'll tackle it as soon as I've finalized my Exim-4 fsync() patch. I'm
at the point where I need to investigate the dangers of allowing the
configuration file to exempt the journal file from fsync() calls, so I
should have news on the syslog() front by next week.

Thanks,
