An interesting exercise, but really you've tackled the program in the
wrong way. The first thing to do is figure out whether there is a
problem that needs solving, then figure out what exactly that problem
is, then decide what the requirements are for any solution.
Only then should design start - at which point research like the bit you
presented here is *extremely* useful.
So I guess the question is: Is there a need for an improved logging
framework?

p.s. If the need is there, I'll be glad to help. But even though I said
design shouldn't start yet, can I recommend using anything other
than C or C++? :)
