USE_SYSLOG

[Randy Terbush <ra...@zyzzyva.com>]

I'm not entirely sure that using USE_SYSLOG is the best choice, but 
seemed to have the most support.

* Why would you not want to compile in support for syslog()?
  By having it compiled in, if available, you can turn it on and off 
  in the config.

* Seems like not having this compiled in by default will only produce 
  more bug reports from people who can't understand why it doesn't 
  work.

Shows I should pay more attention. In that case, I'm +1 for HAVE_SYSLOG.

Yep.
