Subject: working syslogd for svr4.2 that works with the pm2e

I got mondo frustrated last night trying to get the syslog facility
to work with my USL SVR4.2 boxes and the Livingston PM2E's.

Finally got the word from a friend that took the time to read the
FAQ that the standard USL provided syslogd ignores UDP requests and
therefore is basicly blind to other systems.  

Since im not the only one out there using SVR4.2 machines I grabbed 
the source from BSD and slapped it around a bit until it would compile
with out errors on my systems.

ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/livingston/contrib/syslogd.svr4.2.tar.Z

I also included the binaries, just in case you have problems compiling.
Shouldn't, the only thing I used out of the bsd compat libs was wait3()
and that can be replaced with a simple macro.  The binaries should
run on just about any svr4.2 box running on intel hardware.
