Oh... Duh...  Yep, that's it.  Just wrote a test entry via logger and
it picked that up.

Now if I can just get my "ignore" lines to work properly, I'll be all
set.  When using regular expressions on the "ignore" lines, do you
need to surround them as %"" like with regexes in hobbit-alerts.cfg
and such?
