One thing that would be very nice is for msyslog to be thread safe.

If we use a lock, we need to be able to recover in case we crash within 
msyslog while the lock is held.

I'm not enough of a Unix file system wizard.  Are there any guarantees about 
multi-threaded writes to the same file not getting scrambled?  Will it work if 
we buffer everything into a big buffer and do a single write?
