Hm, we don't capture syslog automatically :S We capture stdout and
stderr

I'm not even sure there's something listening on syslog in virtme-ng
Is it possible to make the daemon log to stdout or a file and dump
that file to stdout on failure? Even if we fix the current issue
it will be quite inconvenient if we have to go into syslog every time
the test is failing. The test output should provide enough info to
debug failures.
