Yup, that's correct. I am using version 7.4.3 right now, and didn't see this 
addressed in the changelog for 7.4.4, but maybe I missed it.

Setting Facility to anything above local0 will not work: it defaults to local0 
regardless. I saw a forum post about this (not on my laptop with the link atm), 
followed by a comment that it was a typo to be fixed in a future update.

I'm just wondering if that's been accomplished yet, and if not can I make the 
typo fix myself. :)
