[syslog-ng] Integrating syslog-ng on Solaris 10

[Matthew Hall]

Can you make system-log collect the things it should collect, then relay to syslog-ng?

Meanwhile, you can tweak syslog-ng's config to make sure it doesn't open any of the files or sockets that you see that system-log has claimed when it's running using pfiles or such commands.
