Change Details

Previously, syslogd's daemon process would signal that it had finished initialization using SIGALRM. In capability mode, signal delivery is not allowed, so use a pipe to indicate that it is ready to accept messages. Remove @ts and @tsp variables. These were originally used as a timeout in kevent(). If needdofsync was true, the timeout would be set to 0, and dofsync() would be called. A simple if-statement can avoid this dance, checking if needdofsync is set before kevent() is called.
