There is a better way to do it. Compile postgres with -DUSE_SYSLOG, add
syslog=1 or syslog=2 into pg_options and it will output all elog messages
to the syslog facility with the pid. See trace.c for details.
But you won't be able to see the milliseconds fields because syslog
doesn't handle this information.
