[LDM #JSH-709228]: Installing without syslog (local logging only)?

Gerry,

The autoconf(1) macro AC_CHECK_FILE is used to check for the system logging 
daemon's configuration-file. The macro expands into "test -r ...". If you 
replace those strings with "test -e ..." in the configure(1) script, then it 
might work.
