Bug description:Syslog never returns false while a FALSE is documented in php 
manual

Description:
------------
Sorry for the 'Package affected' select, network related is selected due to
the syslog() in php manual



in line 273 of ext/standard/syslog.c, i found following code:

[code]

272     php_syslog(priority, "%s", message);

273     RETURN_TRUE;

[/code]

while in http://cn.php.net/syslog, it writes:

[code]

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. 

[/code]

Another return value is null from :

[code]

267     if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "ls",
&priority,

268                               &message, &message_len) == FAILURE) {

269         return;

270     }

[/code]

null is returned only if there is a parameter error.



Can your bring a FALSE returned by php's syslog();



Test script:
---------------
null

Expected result:
----------------
null

Actual result:
--------------
null
