[systemd-devel] journald does not support syslog?

Hello all!

As per the systemd-journald man page,

> It creates and maintains
>        structured, indexed journals based on logging information that

> Simple system log messages, via the libc syslog(3) call

Unfortunately I did not find any configuration parameter to make 
systemd-journald listen on a unix/network socket for syslog messages, 
making me high suspicious of this claim.

So final question is -- How do you make journald listen for syslog 
messages via syslog protocol?
