The 4.3BSD "syslog()" (as appears in SunOS 4.0, among other systems)
connects to "syslogd" using a UNIX-domain socket.  Do a "chroot()", and
that UNIX-domain socket may no longer be accessible....

I seem to remember much discussion of fixes to this problem at one
point; I no longer remember what conclusions were drawn, if any.
