/*
 * Primitive protocol structure for writing to syslogger pipe(s).  The idea
 * here is to divide long messages into chunks that are not more than
 * PIPE_BUF bytes long, which according to POSIX spec must be written into
 * the pipe atomically.  The pipe reader then uses the protocol headers to
 * reassemble the parts of a message into a single string.  The reader can
 * also cope with non-protocol data coming down the pipe, though we cannot
 * guarantee long strings won't get split apart.
 *
 * We use non-nul bytes in is_last to make the protocol a tiny bit
 * more robust against finding a false double nul byte prologue. But
 * we still might find it in the len and/or pid bytes unless we're careful.
