Hmm, according to the README for Unix::Syslog, its whole purpose in life (as
opposed to Sys::Syslog) is that it uses native C code to link into the OS's
syslog functions.  This is specifically *so* that it can log without having
to connect via a network socket.  I've used Unix::Syslog quite extensively
on Solaris (and now on Linux) without my syslog listening on UDP.
