Correct.  It's the name of the program that has the file descriptor open.  I 
guess I got in too much of a hurry.

As shipped for SLES9, syslog.conf only references /dev/console, and 
/dev/xconsole.  The configuration for syslog-ng on SLES10 is quite a bit 
different, but looks like it directs "stuff" to /dev/log.
