   Fix:

   In openlog(), connect() to /dev/log.  Subsequently, use send() on
   the connected socket rather than sendto().  User can now do an
   openlog() before any chroot().

This will work, but it would change things so that a call to openlog()
would be necessary.  The way it works now (as documented in syslog(3)),
use of openlog() is optional.
