[syslog-ng]logging from a chrooted process

A symlink to /dev/log in a chroot refers to CHROOT/dev/log, which is the
same in your case if I understand the above correctly. If that would
work the way you intended, that would defeat the purpose of a chroot :)

Different story with hardlinks, which in turn wont work with sockets.
