Oh dear. Again I make the foolish error of assuming that
``Unix'' presents a ``standard'' ``interface'' for the
applications programmer. Apply the following patch, or
replace references to LOG_AUTHPRIV with LOG_AUTH.

diff -u -r1.2 logging.c

Linux. It's a nice system to develop for:

    - you get a C compiler with the system...
    - and it's not bollocks;
    - you get a reasonable C library...
    - although it's full of security holes (what isn't?);
    - it's standards compliant, in the ``I love standards:
      there are so many to choose from'' sense;
    - it's not Solaris.

Others might argue that all of the above are points
against Linux....
