There must be somewhere in the kernel where we're writing to the

kernel message.
Actually, syslog should be just fine without getting a trailing
newline; from the manpage:
" The message is identical to a printf(3) format string, except
that `%m'
is replaced by the current error message. (As denoted by the
global
variable errno; see strerror(3).) A trailing newline is added
if none is
present."
