understood.  but is using unix-stream("/dev/log") the same as klogd?

is this redundant?

source s_local {
        internal();
        unix-stream("/dev/log");
};
source s_kmsg {
        file("/proc/kmsg");
};

I may be mistaken, but kmsg is for kernel messages right?  And other
apps use /dev/log.  So, /dev/log would have info that kmsg doesn't.  Or
am I missing something?
