We only call openlog() for slapd, not in tool mode. We initialize 
ldap_syslog to zero in tool mode, because there's no reason for command 
line tools to be sending any messages to syslog (as opposed to stderr) 
but if you have a "loglevel" directive in your slapd config, that will 
take effect and so Debug messages from the tools will get copied to 
syslog. We can't just ignore the loglevel directive in tool mode, 
otherwise using slaptest to convert a slapd.conf file to slapd.d format 
will miss this directive.
