While I'd agree with all of the above,

and I'd agree with this in principle, there is a minor nit with
the implementation and use in trace.c.  E.g.

This used to be a single call into trace.c which would format a
single string to write(2) out.  Now these two messages go
through separate write(2) and can be broken up.  I think the
atomicity of the log/trace message was the primary reason the
original had such a strange calling convention.
