     "info" is a logging level, not a logging facility, so this patch is
completely wrong.  Also, there is no reason why general logging and
graphdefang logging have to go to the same place and it would be wrong to
force that.  Finally, MIMEDefang provides $SyslogFacility and md_openlog()
for specifying the facility.  See man mimedefang-filter.
