Description: SyslogAppender has no property for enconding or charset configuration.

I'm using a record-separator character inside a Syslog message, that is: "±"

I have patched it in a derived class of SysLogAppenderBase, adding the following:

sos.write(msg.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"));

instead the original: sos.write(msg.getBytes());

I think that a "enconding" or "charset" parameter for SyslogAppender would be sufficient.
Environment: All, specially Servers with UTF-8 configuration
