Log Message:
Use syslog(3) to log new users and groups, deletions of users and groups,
and modification of user and group information.
Syslog priority is LOG_INFO, facility is LOG_USER (there is no need to
do this via LOG_AUTH, since the password and group files are world
readable).
Suggested by Hubert Feyrer, after a similar facility in Linux.
LOG_USER seems very wrong for this to me (syslog(3)):
LOG_USER Messages generated by random user processes. This is the
default facility identifier if none is specified.
this seems more like LOG_AUTH stuff to me.
