Purpose of use_syslog

Odd, when I read it, it looked like use_syslog only used the syslog facility, but it is a bit confusing isn't it.
I'm going to take a closer look.

Sincerely,
Steve

Documentation doesn't make it entirely clear, but a quick peek into
base/logging.c hints that use_syslog means it will log to both when
set to 1, at least that's how I'm reading the code.
