Okay, wow, that was easy:

printf "syslog\n134\nbar\n1\n<134>VERY\nNICE\n" | strace -f socat
STDIN UNIX-CONNECT:/run/systemd/logger

My custom shell can open the UNIX socket to /run/systemd/logger, prime
the connection by setting up the facility, etc and then pass the
socket as stderr to the program being run.

Could this interface be made part of the sd-daemon API? :-)
