That's like saying that SMTP and POP3 (or IMAP) go together, so they should
both log to the same file in the same format....
I don't think an anti-virus scanning daemon and a virus signature library
updater should be expected to produce the same sort of output - one is
concerned with scanning files and reporting on the contents; the other is
connecting to external servers and downloading files. The expected results,
and the possible errors, are very different.

That seems like a reasonable request.
