Logging breaking on OS X

1. Syslog not respected (Fixed by termie in https://code.launchpad.net/~termie/nova/conditional_syslog/+merge/50847)

fixed

2. Run_tests.sh just plain hangs

I can't reproduce this. it works with the above patch for me

3. Multiprocessing does not play well with logger. Somehow 711 seems to be indirectly tripping this issue. See http://code.google.com/p/python-multiprocessing/issues/detail?id=18 for root cause.

The issue is that processName doesn't actually exist in python 2.6.1 (it was added later). Since we aren't using multiprocessing I removed it from the debug output. I suspect that 711 didn't actaully create the bug, but the error was just getting eaten somewhere. fix here:

Would rather just apply termie patch as the rest of the problems don't block development but will bow to majority rule.

I need to confirm with our team, but I believe this is hitting us on SUSE 11.1. The default Python is 2.6.0.
