- use explicit flushes instead of setlinebuf. I've had reports of

  verbose info not being line buffered to files.

- add a call to localtime() in open_log() in order to prime the C
  libraries timezone cache before the chroot(). This should fix the
  problem of rsyncd log entries being in GMT time.
