[PATCHES] Syslog produces no log (just for me?)

Hello, I noticed that my /var/log/messages (and other log files and
tty12) were not filled anymore.  I found that the problem is in
"syslog.conf": when the "rule" lines begin with spaces, they are
ignored, so I'm attaching a patch to fix it.¹

The strange thing is it worked earlier (with the same config) and since
nobody noticed that before, I have a feeling that it might be the
problem on my computer.  So I appreciate if someone confirms that the
problem really exists.

Also I think it would be good to allow a user to specify his own
configuration file for syslogd (a patch is also attached²).  WDYT?

Thanks, Alex.
