Description

Hi.

If i send a one bad message(in my case unicode string instead of utf8 string), then all messages after that get me a "bad argument" error despite the fact that they are correct:

15> {ok, Logh} = syslog:open("test", [pid], local1).
{ok,#Port<0.1838>}
16> syslog:log(Logh, info, "ascii message").        
ok
17> syslog:log(Logh, info, <<"ascii message">>).
ok
18> syslog:log(Logh, info, unicode:characters_to_binary("utf8 сообщение")).
ok
19> syslog:log(Logh, info, "utf8 сообщение").

Can syslog module automatically recover in this situation? It would be great if syslog module keeps
a working state despite a one bad message.

Thanks!
