I'm pretty sure it has done that all along; at least the design
intention is that messages generated by syslogger itself should go to
its stderr. (Else, if the logger is having trouble, you might never get
to find out why at all.)
It might be reasonable to reduce "logger shutting down" to DEBUG1
or so, now that the facility has been around for awhile.
