There is a trick in the autoconf manual to detect whether $(( )) works
and use it. But maybe it is simpler and more readable to just use expr
instead, it is a well known shell programming idiom.

Why is this? I'm assuming it is because the --host flag is overloaded to
also support Unix sockets. However, perhaps a better solution would be
to implement the -u socket that my BSD logger tool uses for logging to a
Unix socket. Then the --host flag would be entirely dedicated to
hostnames. There would also be better compatibility with existing
'logger' on many people's systems.
