[syslog-ng] Inline Compression

[Aaron Wiebe]

Greetings,

I've noticed in 1.6.x that there are tags already built into the
configuration file to support inline compression of file output  (but
they complain if used).  Is there any plan to support this?  Are there
reasons this hasn't been implemented yet?  Given my knowledge of the
libgzip, I can't imagine its terribly hard.

The ability to write logs compressed would be -very- useful.
