klogd and syslogd

Hi.

We are substituting the use of busybox syslogd for our own log system 
(not at all generalistic... that is why I won' t try to submit patches 
for it). However we would like to maintain klogd as is.

Why is the klogd configuration integrated into syslogd configuration? 
The communication mechanism between could be used in other systems.

Wouldn't it be useful to split them?

Thanks

Miguel Ángel
