It does not "find" syslog. Syslog runs as a daemon started at boot
time, and handles certain types of error messages automatically as
described in the syslogd and syslog.conf manual page. What it probably
can't find is the *include* files associated with syslog, usually
/usr/include/syslog.h on some other operating systems.

Syslog may simply not be installed on your Linux box: it's part of
the "sysklogd" package, available at an RPM site near you.
