It *looks* like only logger is affected, assuming that syslog() has not
been changed. Then it should minimal. I can't also outrule that other
syslogd's also get into some trouble, as this is something really new.

It's though for me to make that call, it requires a lot of knowledge of how
the rest of the system works. Let me ask a simple question: do logs on such
a system look normal with just some occasional uglyness when logger was
involved?
