In mod_wsgi for nginx I now redirect sys.stderr to server log file (as 
suggested by Graham).

So, the application can setup the logging module to use sys.stderr as 
stream.

However there are some problems.
The log object has a fixed error level (NGX_LOG_ERR);
this means that every message logged using this object will have this 
error level, even if I do, as example:
log.info('just an info message')

This can be a problem if I use a log filter that will send an email 
every time it sees a NGX_LOG_ERR message in log file.

A better solution could be the integration with the logging module.

However there are some problems here, too, since log levels from nginx 
and the logging module differs.
