what about the tty12 bug? can this be fixed with journald? it seems
to be
a feature that people don't want to lose?

Not sure. I'll find out. It should be trivial really... i.e. all it
really needs is a journalctl -f command run on tty12. You could craft an
agetty command that worked like that easily enough, although there may
be something more elegant that is more efficient and cleaner.

since the tty12 "feature" is present now, it would be nice if it could
still
be there and started as soon as possible, just like before.

I'd like tough than journald be reloaded if the host name change. That's
a bit painful to get logs for 'localhost' just because the name was set
after starting log system.

Restarting journald is not a great idea if you can avoid it. At present
it doesn't yet support a full reexec mode which preserves file
descriptors which are connected to it thus some apps may lose their
logging depending on how they are connected to it.

Also I'm not sure what you mean... if I change my hostname, it's
reflected properly in the journal.

Does this not happen on your system? Perhaps some configuration probme
with nss-myhostname (tho' not 100% that matters)?
Just the fact than /var/log/message contains lines as:
Feb 11 19:51:52 localhost acpid: client connected from 2074[0:0]
Feb 11 19:51:52 localhost acpid: 1 client rule loaded

etc...

Whereas my host name, set from HOSTNAME variable in /etc/sysconfig/network, is beria.inria.fr. I have to restart my syslog daemon to get it correct. So I guess just ensuring the hostname is either set prior the start of the logging process, or refreshing this last one thereafter, would avoid the issue.

I was probably wrong in seeing journald as a potential responsable here, tough, as it also happens on a mageia 2 system.
