This is a question from a third party software developer:  I've to support a 
legacy application 
package which used to add an entry to /etc/inittab on traditional Unix/Linux 
systems to 
start (and respawn) a certain demon.
  
When Ubuntu moved to upstart I added a /etc/event.d/-file template.  Later I 
was forced to
add an additional *.conf template for /etc/init directory.  My question is: 
What do I have to put
into these files to get the stderr  output of this demon into the syslog on all 
versions of 
Ubuntu?  (we have a lot of 8.04 LTS still in use in the field; moving slowly to 
10.04 LTS)
For me it is very difficult to figure this out.  Thanks in advance.
Is installing a backported upstart package a viable option? How much risk is 
that?
