> As per Syslog RFC, priority = (facility * 8) + severity, given this logic,
> the code to calculate facility and severity from priority should be
> severity = priority % 8 ;
> facility = (priority - severity) / 8 ;
> But in SyslogUtils's buildEvent method
> facility = priority - severity
> i.e. the / 8 is missing.
