The global log handler isn't a good choice for a low-level library. In the caser of the X server, both evdev and synaptics are now using the libevdev but are loaded from the same server process. Thus, there's only one log handler, but evdev and synaptics don't talk to each other (a bit childish, I know). Add a per-device log handler that overrides the global log handler, and fall back to the global log handler if no device log handler is set. The log macros take care of that automatically, especially as we can't do per-device log handlers for the uinput code. Note that we use the same struct for the global and device logging, so in each instance one of the two function pointers is NULL. Suicide triggers are in place in case we mess that up. This also makes libevdev_new_from_fd() a bit less useful since we can't set the log handler beforehand.

libevdev - wrapper library for evdev input devices
libevdev is a wrapper library for evdev devices. it moves the common tasks when dealing with evdev devices into a library and provides a library interface to the callers, thus avoiding erroneous ioctls, etc.
git://git.freedesktop.org/git/libevdev http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libevdev/
The eventual goal is that libevdev wraps all ioctls available to evdev devices, thus making direct access unnecessary.
