New Revision: 364223
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/364223

Log:
  syslog(3): Send proper NILVALUE if gethostname(3) fails.
  
  RFC5424 defines NILVALUE as '-'. Replace its usage with a macro and
  separate out the fields to be more clear. fputs(3) is used in some
  places to avoid hiding possible format string problems in a macro.
