New issue 998 by pekka.klarck: `logging` module is configured to emit
messages with unnecessarily low level
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=998
RF 2.6 added a possibility to log messages using Python's `logging` module
(issue 455). This works fine otherwise but we configure `logging` to emit
all messages even if we are only interested in messages above the current
log level. In practice this causes problems if a test library (or module it
uses) logs so much on debug level that execution slows down.
