 *	those used by openlog(3), as follows:
 *
 * \code
 *		tag: The string to use in the position of the program
 *			name in syslog messages.  Most (all?) syslogs
 *			will use basename(argv[0]) if tag is NULL.
 *
 *		options: LOG_CONS, LOG_PID, LOG_NDELAY ... whatever your
 *			syslog supports.
 *
 *		facility: The default syslog facility.  This is irrelevant
 *			since isc_log_write will ALWAYS use the channel's
 *			declared facility.
 * \endcode
 *
 *\li	Zero effort has been made (yet) to accommodate systems with openlog()
 *	that only takes two arguments, or to identify valid syslog
 *	facilities or options for any given architecture.
 *
 *\li	It is necessary to call isc_log_opensyslog() to initialize
 *	syslogging on machines which do not support network connections to
 *	syslogd because they require a Unix domain socket to be used.  Since
 *	this is a chore to determine at run-time, it is suggested that it
