Syslog open handle
Description:
This patch was added because sshd keeps an open handle on the syslog file.
So every connection made spawns off a sshd process with an open file handle.
This was discovered on IRIX machines where there is a limit on the number of
open file handles on the syslog file (152). So after 150 or so users were
connected to a machine nothing could open the syslog for logging. All this
patch does is every time something is needed to be logged it opens the syslog
and then closes it after logging.
