 Hi Royce,
 
 I think this is a consequence of the program specification feature
 of syslogd - have a look at the syslog.conf man page and search for
 "program specification".
 
 As a documented feature, it is probably not something that we can
 change.  However, we could add a warning to syslog.conf.
 
 	David.
