Nginx now only logs to syslog, from which it can be forwarded to a central logserver.
If needed, they can still be found in /var/log/messages
An additional issue was fixed: Nginx uses local7 as the default facility. The local7 logs are (apart from /var/log/messages) also logged in /var/log/boot.log, resulting in saving each log line twice. It has been changed to the facility "local3".
