Actually, that's a good plan, but I'd have to dig up how to do this from
the archives, and it would probably end up being a patch of more than
just -1 +4 lines.

I think that complexity can be left up to "third parties". Logging early
is probably more useful (at least together with the "Big Picture") as
something goes wrong. You'd add that log daemon as single central point
of (logging) failure, which is not exactly enhancing robustness.
