Which syslog daemon are you using? There are some issues pending with syslog-ng 
and Python logging (see issue6444) and in general syslog over TCP is not 
necessarily all that reliable, see

http://blog.gerhards.net/2008/04/on-unreliability-of-plain-tcp-syslog.html

The requested change is not difficult to make, but it will be difficult for me 
to test because in general end-to-end testing for network APIs is not there in 
the standard regression test suite, and I don't have a setup where I can test 
it independently. So I'm sorry to say I will not be able to give this a very 
high priority at the moment (unless another committer can test this).

Just curious (as no one has asked for this before) why you're using TCP, given 
that it doesn't eliminate message loss and it is slower and has less support 
than UDP?
