Actually it varies; some systems use a datagram socket, but others use
a stream.  I think it changed between two revisions of Red Hat, for
example.  A little while ago I accepted a patch to the Medusa syslog
support that tries to open /dev/log as a datagram socket first, and if
that fails tries it as a stream socket.
