Main differences from the original sysklogd package are:
- Support for `include /etc/syslog.d/*.conf`, see example .conf
- `klogd` no longer built by default (optional) `syslogd` is stand-alone
- *Major* command line changes to `syslogd`, for compatibilty with *BSD
- Supports `include /etc/syslog.d/*.conf` directuve, see example .conf
- Built-in log-rotation support, with compression by default, useful for
embedded systems. No need for cron and a separate log rotate daemon
- Full [RFC3164][] and [RFC5424][] support
- Includes timestamp and hostname, RFC3164 style, in remote logging
- Full [RFC3164][] and [RFC5424][] support from NetBSD and FreeBSD
- Support for sending RFC3164 style remote syslog messages, including
timestamp and hostname. Defaults to send w/o for compatibility
- Support for sending RFC5424 style remote syslog messages
- Support for sending messages to a custom port on a remote server
- Support for listening to a custom port
- Support for remote peer filtering, from FreeBSD
- Support for disabling DNS reverse lookups for each remote log message
- Support for FreeBSD Secure Mode
- Includes a `logger` tool with RFC5424 capabilities (`msgid` etc.)
- Includes a library and system header replacement for logging
- Includes a syslog library and system header replacement for logging
- FreeBSD socket receive buffer size patch
- Avoid blocking `syslogd` if console is backed up
- Touch PID file on `SIGHUP`, for integration with [Finit][]
