Subject: [PATCH 1/2] daemon: send more error messages to the syslog

From: Johannes Sixt <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 14:25:20 +0100

There were a number of die() calls before the syslog was opened; hence,
these error messages would have been sent to /dev/null in detached mode.
Now we install the daemon-specific die routine before any error message is
generated so that these messages go to the syslog.
