	For grins I compiled sql support into syslog-ng. Here's the new rc script.

depend() {
         need net
         use mysql dns logger netmount postgresql
         after sshd
}

	It'll load after Mysql only if it exists in the current runlevel. As 
other people have said, there isn't any problem to solve here.
