For applications that don't support anonymous and/or named pipe, you may
create a multitasking program which does "tail -f" on log files and
relays to syslog. If Perl is an option, I recommend using POE[1].
There's already a POE cookbook recipe[2] that does simple "tail -f" and
follows log rotations.
