  Modified files:
    usr.sbin/syslogd     syslogd.c 
  Log:
  Don't give up on a remote log host when we get a EHOSTUNREACH or
  EHOSTDOWN. These are often transient errors (when the remote host
  reboots, temporary network problems, etc.), and we'd rather err on the
  side of caution and keep trying send messages that never arrive than
  just give up.
  
  Note that this is not an implementation of the "back-off" methods
  given in the PR. Those just seem too complicated. Why not just keep
  trying each time? Trying and failing doesn't really consume
  significantly more resources than if we were successful for each
  message.
