Am I correct in recalling that there is a non-backgrounding patch for apache?
Because my absolute instinctive first thought is just to patch apache so it can
log to /dev/fd/1 and 2, and use it with multilog as djb intended. :-) I tried
naively telling apache in its config file to log to /dev/fd/1, but of course
that's opened as /dev/null so that goes to the bitbucket... but I was thinking
that a non-backgrounding patch would probably leave fd1/2 open to the terminal,
right? So, could it work? Or am I crazy?
