On embedded systems, we are limited in the amount of free space on the flash.
With intensive logging and a large number of log files, storing them in text form may not be rational.
Sometimes it is much more efficient to compress such files.
This patch adds a command line option for syslogd that allows you to compress(gzip) rotated log files.
By default this option is disabled. The main log file remains uncompressed.
