syslogd -S

I wanted to fix this differently, so -S would not be necessary.

The ideal state:

 1)     -s controls acceptance of inbound datagrams.
 2)     syslog.conf controls whether outbound datagrams get sent.

If no "log to other host" rules were set in syslog.conf, and -s were
in force, no socket would be opened/left open.
