>Description:
The default installation contains a /etc/newsyslog.conf files where all flags
are uppercase. The man page only documents lowercase flags and does not
mention case insensitivity.
>How-To-Repeat:
Code inspection.
>Fix:
I think we should both document the case-insensitivity and make the default
file use the same style as the man page (not sure if that should be upper-
or lowercase).
