I would amplify this last statement. The main useful feature is that
Unix::Syslog works on RedHat linux, whereas Sys::Syslog does not.
Unix::Syslog actually uses the syslog(3) library call to post the
message, wheras Sys::Syslog uses the socket interface to connect to
syslogd(8), which is a little less efficient.
