In looking at this some more, it appears that *SOMETHING* is not
allowing messages from set_config_option() in
/src/backend/utils/misc/guc.c out WHEN WE ARE DEALING WITH syslog type
stuff and we are reading it from the postgresql.conf file. I'm not
sure how to deal with this.. I set syslog=2 then syslog_facility to
some invalid value, and all I get is the syntax error message, not the
"option rejects value" message.

Anyone got any ideas?

Oh, delete the elog() and fprintf() before you commit my patch (in
check_facility() in guc.c), please.
