I wouldn't expect that based on the traditional custom of syslog daemons. If 
you specify a filter configuration, such as setlogmask or some custom logic in 
the syslog daemon itself, the logging system should respect it. Even if it 
might not make sense to a given individual.

That said, rte_panic should be making sure the messages it generates always get 
logged, regardless of the logging system settings, because it is hijacking 
control of your process which is a very hostile act. This special exemption 
should only happen for things that are truly fatal. Not anything else.
