Here's what I noted about fixing the Syslog module to overcome the same
problem on Solaris 8:

  Need to fix lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Log/Dispatch/Syslog.pm
  In the _init routine, there are args:
                            socket   => { type => SCALAR,
                                          default => 'unix' },
  ...change the default to 'inet', which is what the POD documentation says:
                                          default => 'inet' },
  ...then syslog will work.
