Summary: difficulty enabling USE_SYSLOG

System Configuration
--------------------
  Operating System   : FreeBSD 2,3

  PostgreSQL version : 6.5,6.5.1

  Compiler used      : gcc

Hardware:
---------
Pentium

Versions of other tools:
------------------------
standard

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Description:
--------------------
the flag USE_SYSLOG is defined in config.h, which is
created by configure.
the configure script does not know about USE_SYSLOG, however, i believe it knows about syslog in general
(ie it knows if there is a syslog(), and hence can enable based on that)
the documentation talks about syslog, but does not list a procedure for enabling it.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Test Case:
----------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution:
---------
change configure to enable USE_SYSLOG if syslog facilities are available.
