The first part was before my time (AFAIR) but a part of it was due to
stderr syslogging with forking:
https://github.com/reubenhwk/radvd/commit/61bb845a319cd0a23ef2edb762712779604eff22
So I think this had something to do with logging working correctly
with a) forking and/or b) privilege dropping and c) different
logmethods.
