 The problem looks related to recent changes to syslogd and libc, to log
 via /var/run/logpriv for privileged processes.
 
 The program below works running as a mortal, but logs to the console if
 run as root.
 
 #include <syslog.h>
 #include <stdarg.h>
 
 int main(int argc, char *argv[])
 {
   openlog("test", LOG_CONS, LOG_LOCAL0);
 
   syslog(LOG_INFO, "%s", "test");
 
   closelog();
 }
