- Update ot version 1.5.1
  ChangeLog for version 1.5.1
    Many thanks to Rainer Gerhards, rsyslog project lead, for
    identifying a problem with how rsyslog's rsyslogd and sysklogd's
    syslogd check for invalid priority values (CVE-2014-3634).
  ChangeLog for version 1.5
  * Fix file descriptor leak in klogd
  * Improve argument list processing
  * Prevent potential buffer overflow in reading messages from the
    kernel log ringbuffer
  * Ensure that "len" is not placed in a register, and that the endtty()
    signal handler is not installed too early which could cause a
    segmentation fault or worse
  * klogd will reconnect to the logger (mostly syslogd) after it went
    away during operation
  * On heavily loaded system syslog will not spit out error messages
    anymore when recvfrom() results in EAGAIN
  * Makefile improvements
  * Local copy of module.h
  * Improved manpage
  * Always log with syslogd's timezone and locale
  * Remove trailing newline when forwarding messages
  * Continue working properly if /etc/service is missing and ignore
    network activity
  * Continue writing to log files as soon as space becomes available
    again after a filled up disk
  * Removed test to detect control characters> 0x20 as this prevented
    characters encoded in UTF-8 to be properly passed through
  * Only resolve the local domain when accepting messages from remote
  * Properly accompany the MARK message with the facility
