The LOG_CONT and LOG_NEWLINE flags are mutually exclusive, i.e., the presence of LOG_NEWLINE implies the absense of LOG_CONT, and vice-versa. As a result, wherever LOG_CONT is used, we can equivalently substitute !LOG_NEWLINE; and we can use LOG_NEWLINE wherever !LOG_CONT is used. Switch to using LOG_NEWLINE only, and get rid of LOG_CONT. Make some refinements on a nearby block of comments.
