I think it would be nice to add the following three commits from
master; they either apply as is or with an automatic merge done by
git:

      logger: correctly format tv_usec
  
      tv_usec is an unspecified signed integer type.
      The format string %u assumes an unsigned int, which is incorrect.
      Especially on 32bit big-endian, where it can lead to invalid values.

Good to know. There is no release timeline yet for Debian trixie, so
depending on that and when you think 2.41 final might arrive, we
could ship with 2.41. If you have any input on that, please let me
know.

Thanks!
