I have changes in my tree that ports the dump changes that OpenBSD did
a while ago to make dump/restore not setgid anymore.  But it requires
that I port changes to wall to support -g.  Alternatively, I need to
add group support to syslogd, which would be much more generic (thanks
to bde, I think, for this idea).  Now, all I need is a good syntax for
groups.

Right now you have
        / -> log to file
        * -> all users
        @h -> log to host h
        | -> log to program
        u1,u2 -> log to users u1 and u2
and I'm thinking that : might be a good idea:
        :g -> log to all members of group g logged into the machine.

I'm not sure which way to go at this point.
