svn commit: r449326 - in head/sysutils: . syslog-ng syslog-ng311 syslog-ng311/files

[Cy Schubert]

Sorry for the churn then. It's been a while since I've seriously looked at 
eventlog. My apologies.

Should we put a comment into the eventlog Makefile to deprecate it when 
syslog-ng310 is eventually retired?
