Older host packages ship a crosvm that treats a failed syslog initialisation as fatal. Newer crosvm only warns, so this shows up only when testing with older Android versions.

Bind-mounting the host's /dev/log would fix it too, but mixes container logs into the host. A syslogd inside the container keeps the logs there instead; busybox-syslogd is the smallest one Debian offers without pulling in systemd pieces.
