+logging:
+- services and daemons use their directory name in GNUNET_log_setup (i.e. 
'core')
+  and log using plain 'GNUNET_log'.
+- command-line tools use their full name in GNUNET_log_setup (i.e. 
'gnunet-publish')
+  and log using plain 'GNUNET_log'.
+- service access libraries log using 'GNUNET_log_from' and use 
+  'DIRNAME-api' for the component (i.e. 'core-api')
+- pure libraries (without associated service) use 'GNUNET_log_from' with
+  the component set to their library name (without lib
+  or '.so'), which should also be their directory name (i.e. 'nat')

 configuration:
 - paths (that are substituted in all filenames) are in PATHS (have as few as 
possible)
 - globals for the daemon are in [gnunetd] (for now, have as few as possible!)
