Hi,

Is the syslog function thread safe?  From what I know it is not, and we would have to use syslog_r.  but I don't find an implementation of syslog_r on my system?  Is it because the syslog on my system implicitly thread safe and that is the reason why they didn't provide syslog_r?

what system do you have?  I don't think it is safe to assume that the lack of syslog_r implies that yours is thread-safe.
