now that we've had a needforspeed sprint, it's clear that it's time to 
start working on slowing things down again ;-)

asyncore's logging is configurable through subclassing, as is everything 
else in asyncore (the components don't do anything if you don't subclass 
them).  mapping to the logger module by default will save 5-10 lines of 
code in an application that wants to use the logger module.  *replacing* 
the existing logging hooks with the logger module will break tons of stuff.

BaseHTTP only does webserver-style logging, as far as I can tell.
