In 2008 I implemented the syslog RFCs for NetBSD's syslogd, so if you
are interested please take a look at the syslog code in NetBSD-current
and at my report, linked under http://mschuette.name/wp/gsoc-syslogd/

I've always wanted to create a FreeBSD port for it, but never found
enough time to continue the development  :(
