named uses syslog (by default, anyway), so syslog must start first.

Custom syslog configurations using "@machine" should be done either with
an entry in /etc/hosts if necessary.

Note that syslogd now calls getaddrinfo with the value given for
"machine" as the nodename parameter, and:

         A non-NULL nodename string can be either a node name or a numeric
     host address string (i.e., a dotted-decimal IPv4 address or an IPv6 hex
     address).
