My question regarding thread-safeness of syslog(): On OpenBSD I
used syslog_r() to do thread safe logging (the software in question
is a sendmail milter, which runs multithreaded). FreeBSD does not
have these functions, but the cc man page
For what it's worth, I've used syslog to the *console* before, in a

The only unsafe part is openlog(), so set that up before you start any

variables and atomic writes.

At least on OpenBSD I can use %m in the syslog() format string.
This results in a call to strerror(), which is not thread safe,
AFAIK. This probably is true for FreeBSD as well, so we have the
following three conditions for thread safe
