That looks like anything in PHP that uses log_error() is doing that.

However log_error is doing this:

function log_error($error) {
        global $g;
        $page = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'];
        syslog(LOG_ERR, "$page: $error");
        if ($g['debug'])
                syslog(LOG_WARNING, var_dump(debug_backtrace()));
        return;
}

And captiveportal.inc uses:

function captiveportal_syslog($message) {
        $message = trim($message);
        openlog("logportalauth", LOG_PID, LOG_LOCAL4);
        // Log it
        syslog(LOG_INFO, $message);
        closelog();
}

I wonder if we need to call openlog() inside of log_error() to make sure that does not persist.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.openlog.php#98307 suggests an alternate way of specifying the facility that may be better.

this looks to have been fixed at some point, not seeing that on any of several installs.
