[squid-users] squid logging to syslogd

There doesn't seem to be much documentation on squid's ability (or inability)
to log to the syslog daemon. I have a long-standing squid proxy server, and
I wanted to use the -s option to "enable logging to the syslog." According to
FAQ-6.html (6.2 cache.log), if you start squid with the -s option, "a copy
of certain messages will go into your syslog facilities."

Well, nothing seems to be going to my syslog. I at least expected whatever
goes to the cache.log should be going to syslog, cache.log is still being
used, as well as all other logs.

Ideally, we'd like to point ALL the squid logging to a central log server.
Is there any way to do that, short of copying logs over to that server?
