>Description:
There are several FreeBSD specific facilities not included by sysutils/eventlog which will yield "unknown facility" when using applications linked to eventlog (like syslog-ng3), for example, support of the console.info log facility.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
We grab the missing values from /usr/include/syslog.h and merge them into sysutils/eventlog/src/evtlog.h

I leave the method integration of the patch up to the maintainer.
