Depends on the type of syslog installed wouldn't it? As in Linux
syslog would have different error messages than Solaris or AIX or
Ultrix. My first action would be to look at the source code for the
open ones... and then do a strings on the non-open ones for some
guesses.

Beyond that I do not have anything at the moment.
Sorry.
