Comment (by rmilecki):

 @nbd: it's not really about `CONFIG_WPA_MSG_MIN_PRIORITY` or `-d` switch
 for hostapd, because I'm dealing with
 {{{
 wpa_printf(MSG_ERROR, "Foo\n");
 }}}
 (it's message important enough to be logged with default settings).

 The issue is that hostapd prints `wpa_printf` messages to the stdout and
 so they are not visible in syslog. It's a bit confusing since
 `hostapd_logger` uses syslog. I think it would be nice to be consistent
 about this and let users see all errors in syslog. It's a bit pitty to
 have to run hostapd manually (from command line) to see WPA errors.
