	Ah, the  havoc of one stray space at the beginning of
a line.

	I had noticed that all the other examples of various
logs one could create in syslog.conf worked right. What on Earth
was so special about:

 *.info;auth.info;mail.warning;cron.warning		/var/log/syslog

It's that one stray space before the first asterisk.

I removed it and everything started working.
