In chrooted environments you still have IP:
~ $ grep syslog /etc/services
syslog 514/udp # BSD syslogd(8)
syslog can use that instead. It's the same as with X --- the unix
domain sockets aren't available so "DISPLAY=:0.0" won't work any
longer, but "DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0" works fine.
Cheers,
Stephen.
