Great I'll do some patching to get syslog working.

looking at the xentool.h, following definitions

#define XTL_STDIOSTREAM_SHOW_PID      01u
#define XTL_STDIOSTREAM_SHOW_DATE     02u
#define XTL_STDIOSTREAM_HIDE_PROGRESS 04u

I would suggest to be as
#define XTL_SHOW_PID      01u
#define XTL_SHOW_DATE     02u
#define XTL_HIDE_PROGRESS 04u
So it will be more generic for any loggers that will be implemented

also is everyone happy with following loglevel mappings between 
xentoollog_level and syslog

        {XTL_DEBUG,LOG_DEBUG},
        {XTL_VERBOSE,LOG_DEBUG},
        {XTL_DETAIL,LOG_DEBUG},
        {XTL_PROGRESS,LOG_DEBUG},
        {XTL_INFO,LOG_INFO},
        {XTL_NOTICE,LOG_NOTICE},
        {XTL_WARN,LOG_WARNING},
        {XTL_ERROR,LOG_ERR},
        {XTL_CRITICAL,LOG_CRIT}

Thanks
