Comment (by robertread@…):

 Yes, it still appears to be an issue in 2.7.5 -  the default address for
 SysLogHandler is still set to a UDP port instead the /var/run/syslog unix
 socket. Here is a reproducer.  WIth this snippet, I only see the message
 in /var/log/system.log if I uncomment the address parameter:

 {{{

 import logging
 import logging.handlers

 logger = logging.getLogger()
 syslog = logging.handlers.SysLogHandler(
 #                address='/var/run/syslog'
           )
 formatter = logging.Formatter('%(name)s[%(process)d]: %(message)s')
 syslog.setFormatter(formatter)
 logger.addHandler(syslog)
 logger.warn("test message!")

 }}}
