I get the same error updating RELENG_5_3 to RELENG_5. It's strange 
because the constant most certainly is defined in 
/usr/src/sys/sys/syslog.h. However, when I straced the make, it seemed 
that this file was never used. Instead it used syslog.h from my already 
installed system!

This seems like a grave error in some makefile to me, will look further 
into it later today.

Looking at the CVS notes and the code itself, I don't think it should 
cause any problems - though this probably is a late notice anyway :)
