Make the default kernel prefix "kernel:" instead of the boot file,

2001-11-27T20:02:18+00:00

with the old behavior available via the -o option (it might still be
useful if one has many kernels and cares which messages came from
which).  If the boot file is not used as the prefix, it is still
logged once at startup.

This change is prompted by the fact that the boot file is now much
longer ("/boot/kernel/kernel" vs. "/kernel"), which significanlty
bloats the syslogd output.

2001-09-01T08:42:49+00:00

bind to.  This is useful for hosts running jails that need syslog to
maintain an open socket to log to a remote host.
