I'm on OSX running Mavericks 10.9.2. I'm trying to get my Revel app logging to syslog. My code is failing on this line:

sysLog, err := syslog.New(syslog.LOG_NOTICE|syslog.LOG_LOCAL0, "myApp")

with this error:

Unix syslog delivery error

Syslog is definitely running on my machine. What could be the problem?
