Subject: [PATCH 22/89] tools/oxenstored/syslog: Avoid potential NULL
 dereference
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

strdup() may return NULL.  Check for this before passing to syslog().

Drop const from c_msg.  It is bogus, as demonstrated by the need to cast to
void * in order to free the memory.

(cherry picked from commit acd3fb6d65905f8a185dcb9fe6a330a591b96203)
